Apparently it was all because of Rachel...
Eight years ago Jen and Rachel were flatting together and, well let's just say it;
Jen was single.
Being a great friend, and to kill two birds with one stone, Rachel decided to organise a little party, schmoozing time with a flat of boys....a flat which contained a very eligible Mr Nick Jones and ANOTHER eligible young fella that Rach might have liked a little too.
A hot steamy night at a dodgy K-Rd bar and it was all on.
Well, for Jen and Nick that was - dang that plan Rach.
Jen and Nick became inseparable, that was, until Nick headed over to Europe had a stint in Holland without Jen. In the country of clogs and cheese he decided that if the pair lasted this trying time then he would buy a ring and propose.
Which he did.
With a bottle of wine.
On a beach.
In Italy.
Swooooooon.
Nick and Jen are two of the loveliest people ever, and I was so lucky to get to shoot them on their very special day at Milton Vineyard last weekend. (that's the 26th of Feb for those who like to keep track)
A double pass to Gisborne's Dome cinema to the first person who correctly identify's Rachel. (Just point out which one you think she is in the wine barrel stack photo and write your answer on my facebook page and it's all yours).
CLICK on the photos to make them BIGGER :)
Introducing Mr and Mrs Jones.....aren't they lovely....I want to keep them in a little bottle beside my telly they are sooo cute
All I'm saying is that the balloons play a significant part throughout the whole day!
I just LOVE this shot...just natural and fun, which kind of incapsulates Nick and Jen perfectly!
The people, wine barrel stack: It took a while to organise - but I think it was worth it!
Oh stop it you guys! Tooooo gorgeous!
This is the loose caboose wedding party .... I'm going to say it: probably the loosest and caboosest I've ever had the pleasure of hanging out with. Thanks guys, I had a B.L.A.S.T!
Not at all planned... a little getaways the guys had found while I was off shooting the girls....and when I saw it I thought - that is THE perfect spot for a little smooching!
Gorgeous Jen
Beautiful flowers...the girls wore these on their wrists :)
