la coco noire.

So. I may have got a little bit snap happy over these little beauties but am I going to apologise? Nope. I'm also pretty pleased (and slightly smug) to mention that they don't even taste half bad, probably owing to the extra million tbsp's of vanilla essence that Mikey added to them rather than any baking expertise on my behalf. However, I'm not proud to admit that at least six cookies perished in the baking process. Because Pinterest stopped me checking the time. Obviously.

I used this short and sweet recipe.

Because I can't seem to stick to anything for too long (macaron obsession not included), my bedroom took the wrath and got a much un-needed make over. Said make over basically consisted of throwing out 75% of my stuff and then cursing myself for not being hard skinned enough to throw out another 20% that is now lying under my bed. I painted my walls white, I made my boyfriend whack up a new shelf, I finally got my hands on a clothing rail (Ikea, you darl) and now until the foreseeable future I have undertaken the difficult task of trying to live a life of clutter-free goodness. Partly because I got rid of the majority of my storage space with the addition of a saucy new double bed (SO worth it), and also partly because Pinterest. Just pinterest.

These two tied the knot yesterday in St Mary's Church, Reigate followed by the most idyllic reception at a local private girls school. I'm talking canapés, french windows, champagne, live music and a cake that had 6lbs, yes 6lbs, of chocolate in it.

A few more pictures are here and the rest are soon to follow. Judging by the amount of hours I've spent today in front of my computer drinking tea (currently 13 hours and counting..!!) they should be done and dusted pretty soon and ready for your viewing pleasure :)

I had the absolute pleasure of being the wedding photographer for these two very lovely people a few weeks ago. The ceremony was in a local church in my town and followed by some of the most delicious cakes I've ever tasted outside the church in the sun before a trip up to Reigate Hill to shoot some gorgeous portraits of the newly married couple! After Jo got down on all fours and scrambled underneath a barbed wire fence in full wedding attire (which was definitely worth the stress for the beautiful shot it got!), we headed over to the reception at another local church venue where the gorgeous table set up included all the train stations in the UK that held special memories for them both. The evening was spent dancing the night away to a traditional Scottish ceilidh..which was surprisingly energetic and my legs were definitely feeling a little sore the next day - as I'm sure some of the guests heads were too! My favourite part of the day? The sparkler send off at 10pm. What an absolutely beautiful way to end one of the most lovely weddings I've had the pleasure to be a part of. Congratulations Joanna and Tom and I wish you both all the happiness in the world (and I am so ridiculously jealous of your beautiful little flat!!!)
