Switching off and Easter wishes.
I find it hard to stop thinking in general. But I find it even harder to stop thinking when it comes to my business.
Imperfection can be perfection.
I like attempting something a little different, I know this isn’t a totally new idea or really that fabulous at all.. But garages, they’re everywhere..

Crazy cats.
It all started when I was in primary school and I got this top with ‘Little Miss Naughty’ on, then this girl made her Mum get her the same one. I remember being a little confused as to why someone would want exactly the same thing that they knew I had. It’s that feeling,…
“Sorry, I won’t be in today”.
Last Wednesday I was freezing cold, then hot. Then I started to get a cough. A cough that was that happy to be around that it has stuck with me for what now is 5 days. I despise being ill and knowing I didn’t have a Wedding this weekend I thought… “Hey Kayleigh, you can…

How to make yourself look better when having your photograph taken
One of the things I love about weddings is that I get to shoot real Brides in a real situation.
