And so today i bring you the last of The Bride Diaries Photo shoot <\/a>images… sob sob.<\/p>\n

We had the main photoshoot images here<\/a>, Adeline’s vintage look here<\/a>, Kelly’s classic look her<\/a>e and now it’s lovely Laura’s turn.<\/p>\n

Laura was our quirky and bohemian bride. With her first look more of an alternative style and her second look a little more boho. We really did have a dream team on this shoot! Thanks so much again to Anna Clarke Photography<\/a> for her images \ud83d\ude42 And look out for some behind the scenes action later, including an amazing film.<\/p>\n

Here is what Laura had to say about the day;<\/p>\n

\n

“I hate having my photo taken and I\u2019m pretty much guaranteed to hate 90% of all pictures of me, which is weird given that I keep volunteering to be on the wrong side of the camera!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s always interesting as a photographer to be in front of the camera and it doesn’t hurt to be reminded that it isn’t, initially, always a comfortable experience as you\u2019re generally a bit nervous (I blame those hideous school portraits where you were plonked on a freezing cold bench and forced to grimace while your little sister bawled her eyes out).<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Luckily as well as being amazingly talented, Anna and Simon were lovely and put us all at ease straight away.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We had a lot of fun, although I won\u2019t lie it was freeeeeezing and there was a fair bit of teeth chattering going on in between shots!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

And don\u2019t get me started on the pigs\u2026.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

So who knew that if you stand among a whole load of farmyard animals that a few of them might actually try to bite your toes?! I didn’t. I haven\u2019t seen the super talented Simon\u2019s video yet but I do hope he\u2019s cut the scenes of me running around the pig pen shrieking\u2026.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks so much to the lovely Lou and Alex for organising such a brilliant day and thanks to all of the other suppliers who were involved. And thanks to the pigs for the teeth marks in my yellow wellies. Bad pigs.”<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

For her first look Laura wore an the unusual yet beautiful Amber Headpiece by What Katy Did Next<\/a> and the gorgeous White Duchess Halterneck Dress by Vivien of Holloway<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Laura had an unusual and striking hair style for the shoot created by Wonderful Wedding Hair<\/a>. Here Sharon tells us how she created Laura’s do;<\/p>\n

\n

“I have met Laura a few times and worked with her on occasion and I am actually doing her hair for her wedding day.<\/em><\/p>\n

For laura’s first look we wanted to use the Amber Headpiece by What Katy Did Next<\/a> as it really seemed to fit in with the location. I precurled , added some backcombing for it to sit in front of and then arranged the rest of the hair around the headpiece , backcombing the curls to give it some texture. A quiff at the front completed the look.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

The fabulous Make Up by Katy<\/a> beautified Laura on the day, here Katy tells us how she created Laura’s make up look;<\/p>\n

\n

“For Laura, I wanted to focus a bright splash of colour and decided on a subtle yet bright ombre lip. This meant I had to keep the rest of her make-up clean and subtle. So for her eyes, I stuck with very soft muted shades of grey to add a little definition and went to town with the lips. Using 2 different lip pencils I started with a dark pink, Laura Merciers Petunia all around the edge of the lips. Because this is so much the focus of the look, I really wanted a perfect lip so I then ran around the edge with a concealer pencil to ensure it was a really clean line. I then took a bright coral lip pencil, Mac in Synch and filled in the centre of the lip. The set the base for a 2 tone finish. I wanted to use a product with hugely strong pigment and the only option for me was OCC Lip Tar. I then layered on Memento mixed with Anime and using a tiny amount I carefully and sparingly layered this over the dark pink portion on the lip pencil. Then using a bright coral gloss, Pink Grapefruit by Laura Mercier I filled in the central portion of the lip.<\/em><\/p>\n

A light flush of pink on the cheeks balanced it out without over powering.<\/em><\/p>\n

This look is not for the bride who loves nudes and naturals but is great for those wanting to add a little flash of bright on the big day!”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

For Laura’s second look she wore a stunning bespoke dress by Lottie Emile and a beautiful vintage headpiece by Flo and Percy.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Sharon from Wonderful Wedding Hair<\/a> tells us how she created Laura’s second hair look;<\/p>\n

\n

“I replaced the bow with a vintage headpiece from Flo and Percy. I brushed out some of the backcombing and redefined the curls and the quiff to make it a bit more glam, whilst still keeping the height and unstructured look.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
