BOHO STYLED COUPLE SHOOT IN THE WELSH MOUNTAINS - TONI + LEWIS

This INCREDIBLE couple shoot in the welsh mountains was what all my dreams are made of! 

Toni and Lewis are just beautiful human beings, not only that but have such awesome style , this teamed with an incredible energy and connection ...and magic happens!

And can we please just take a minute to appreciate the hair !! Hair goals! Lewis has this really strong look but has a real gentleness to him in person and Toni has this infectious energy you can't help but smile around and not only that but is hilariously funny , literally the best looking. couple I've ever met but not only that , they are lovely, lovely people with really good and adventurous hearts! 

Toni's Dad Mike  ( who is awesome by the way) is an experienced mountaineer guided us to the best place to catch the sun going down, the wind and cold was fierce but I've said it many times before I love shooting in wild , crazy weather conditions, I guess because everything feels more atmospheric, couples hold each other tighter and if you have that kind of wild hearted couple the wild weather really amplifies their connection, their love. I can't write this blog without saying what a truly beautiful place TREDEGAR is ...wow ..every where you look there is so much beauty! 

After braving the fierce weather we went to warm up at a local pub, then headed off on our 3 hour journey  home, we plan on having a proper drinking session next time :)  Toni and Lewis thank you for being so awesome!! 

My lovely Ben also filmed a short film of this incredible adventure shoot it made me cry when i watched  it all together after we edited it I hope you love it too :) please watch below...

If i haven't already said this before I love boho style!! everything about it excites me , the wildness of hair, the undone flowers and the the way everything just seems to flow so freely, so beautifully and effortlessly ...im praying for more boho brides! :) 

I try to encourage brides and grooms to plan a wedding that feels 100 percent them, to not listen to anything the wedding industry ( or your family and friends ) tell you to do. Other than a few legal steps you should plan your wedding in whatever way YOU want and make sure it represents YOU! Im all for throwing traditions to the wind and planning a unique wedding! 

If you like what you see and would love to see your own love story told in my photographs then please do GET IN TOUCH and we can set up an adventure! 

With lOVE ,

Louise Xx

Some AMAZING suppliers helped make this couple shoot so bloody wonderful ...

JANE + GARETH'S GORGEOUS GOLDEN HOUR LOVE SESSION AT THE BEACH

                                                                                         

PLEASE CLICK PLAY ABOVE TO WATCH  JANE + GARETH'S CINEMATIC FILM OF THER LOVE SESSION!.........

So for a while now, for over a year i have been playing around with filming. Film was my first love, i studied film when i was at college and i somehow fell into this world of photography by accident as life often does.

There is just something so captivating about film, movement, energy. There is something about film that does and always has excited me ( like a kid at christmas excitement). So for this whole year ive studied the film makers in this industry all over the world that inspire me, that move me when i watch what they have created. From them i took inspiration, i already had so many visions of what i wanted my stortelling to look like and feel like and so ive been working behind the scenes for a while to make this vision , this dream a reality. I began filming snippets of the day of my clients weddings which im so excited to share some of these with you, then recently filming my couples Love sessions which i just have had the BEST time doing.

Every night im going to bed with my mind and heart racing with new ideas, new visuals and i literally feel so so excited, so inspired and i feel in full bloom, so full of heart and life and all that good stuff! :) Whats more exciting is that im working with my incredibly talented boyfriend Ben, not only is he a music producer, song writer and musician by day but he is now my second shooter/ film maker and editor, and i just cant wait to see where this adventure takes us together! if you would like to follow Ben you can find him on :
