From Scratch Shoot

from scratch logo

A few months back I was asked to style for a marketing photo shoot for a brand new company in the Turks and Caicos. Talk about my kinda company; a one woman show, producing lovely, handmade goodies for the island!   Literally  . . . . goodies!!  From Scratch specializes in these pretty macarons, as the stylish logo above attests.

But Annie has baking skills which go way beyond cupcakes and cookies, however,  . . . would you look at these scrumptious cupcakes and cookies?

I always arrive early to build this driftwood arch and as I am most often contracted through a wedding planner, I rarely get to meet the couples.  It’s great fun to have the opportunity to view their weddings and see how our handiwork spent the day interacting with these couples during some of the most memorable moments of their lives.  So thank you planners and photographers who share your work with the world!  It’s special not only for family and friends afar, but also for the contributing vendors.

This was my first time working with local make-up artist Thea Lowe,  who I was thrilled with.  This was also my first opportunity to book the young beauty Je’Cannya below.  She has such a versatile look and remarkable professionalism considering she’s only 15!

Hamilton’s Maternity and Family Shoot

HAMILTON-0249

Last November I was lucky enough to style for a maternity and family session for friends of ours,  Mary and James.  We had been talking about a styled shoot since their son William was a wee lad but good thing we delayed for the perfect opportunity . . . the news that they were welcoming a new addition to their family!

Mary handles pregnancy beautifully, can’t you just see it in her smile?

I was beyond impressed when she turned up to Saturday morning dance class the week before her delivery and still managed to stretch and chase circles around her toddler like the rest of us!  She received a standing ovation when she turned up the following week with her brand new baby and William in tow!  Those two are very lucky lads to have such a dedicated momma!
