colour inspiration: pink gold mint and black

i have been asked to create some custom confetti bags for a client who is about to launch her own event coordination company. the confetti bags are going to be handed out at the launch party. i am so exited about the colour combo it sounds like it's going to be a very glamorous event! hopefully more details on this order and my lovely client and her company to come soon.

Brilliant Imagery

I recently had the pleasure of making some custom confetti bags for a lovely lady photographer called Rachel Garcia of Brilliant Imagery She is an amazing photographer based in Las Vegas, Nevada and has been photographing many happy wedding couples for the past eight years. 
Her photography is so varied and unique and it is clear that she really does get to know her clients very well and ensures their personalities are clearly reflected in the photographs she takes. 
Below are some of my favourites (of the many favourites I have) from her website gallery.

So atmospheric and really captures the theme and styling of the wedding.

I love the fun element in these pictures - and the brides outfit!

Beautiful detail / styling shots

And finally the confetti bags I customized for Rachel. They are such a good idea aren't they? - she will be sending these out to her clients. As I have said before - my customers really do come out with the best ideas - most likely because they are so awesome!

If you are in the Las Vegas, Nevada area please be sure to get in touch with Rachel. Take a look at what her happy customers have to say here. As you can see she has a very varied range of photography styles so she is sure to be able to cater for your every wish!

Thanks Rachel for having me create these confetti bags for you. It's such a thrill to know that your clients will be receiving my little creations - all the way from good old 'Blighty'

monday musings

hope you all had a lovely weekend?
i made the most of the fantastic weather with a trip to st.neots and some people watching - one of my favourite things to do. and i got to catch up with some friends i haven't seen for a while.
we ended up looking at the moon and the stars - it always makes me feel so small and my worries so insignificant. the more you look at the sky the more you see and the more stars that appear. it makes me think about the limitless possibilities we have and to not be so fed up when things don't turn out how we had planned. there is always something better just around the corner.

where i live it's really good for stargazing as i am so close to the countryside. i didn't know how beautiful the sky could be at night until i moved here, having only lived in large towns and cities before. i have even seen a quite a few shooting stars from my garden and i like to see it as a sign that something really good is going to happen.
