Gin & Lemons Engagement Shoot by Vela Images...

I simply cannot believe that here we are on the last day of August already and hurtling towards summer (good thing) and Christmas (good thing but happy for it to take it's time getting here!). I feel like my next three months are already full up!! I have some super fun projects coming up which I'm sooo excited about, but it means for a busy busy me! (trust me I'm not complaining about that, just trying to work out how I can make it all happen and remain sane and still see my hubby every now and again!!) However hopefully help is at hand!
This is just the most fun engagement shoot from the fabulously talented Greta Kenyon of Vela Images. From Greta, "Shaye & Blair are getting married in November this year in the Bay of Plenty and for their engagement shoot they wanted to add a slight 1950's retro angle to it. Shaye being very much a foodie (she runs her own catering business) made the delightfully delicious lemon cup cakes and macarons. They also decided to add the couples favourite drink to the shoot, Gin and tonic, which not only tied in beautifully with the cup cakes and macarons but it also helped to calm the nerves in front of the camera!"
Ha... kinda love that idea of having a drink on the shoot to relax yourself... I bet you guys would be far more willing to comply with a shoot if you mentioned a tipple or two!

Wow. This is quite the perfect picnic. I am not a big fan of gin but I am sure I could adapt the concept to something more bubbly ha! But I love the photos and the feel of this e-shoot... Great work Greta, as always.
PS: did you notice that Great and Greta use the same letters? :P
