WOW gorgeous gorgeous details.....great taste for the bride....I am so envious of her Chivari chairs

Thanks for posting these! Very inspirational

Oh my gosh, I was going to do something just like that for the seating cards - hanging with sparkly jewels. It just goes to show there are no original ideas left! I've also used a similar pattern for the borders of my placecards. I love these photos because they're so similar to my own wedding colours - except mine has crimson instead of pink. Thanks for posting them; I'd love to see more!

Please please please could you let me know where the bride had her stationery done. Also were she got those beautiful boxes and napkins. I'm doing a black and white theme for my wedding and damask is just so over done. This is stunning.

These are amazing!!!!!!! You have the most amazing venues! I love #4 and the last pic....gorgeous sunset unique pic def not the same ol'e boring sunset pics that other photographers are used to shooting.......

Holy Mother of God!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Andrea these are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!! Your album layouts and sepias are off the hook.....OMG I am so excited!!!!!!!!! I am so glad you posted these........Did I already say that I am excited? I am elated!! You are the most exciting thing about my wedding besides marrying my best friend.....I really can't wait!

I think Anne is excited; did you notice? :P Yes, they are seriously stunning! I'm so glad you posted some sepia just so we can see the difference. I get your colour obsession, though - your colour pics are so gorgeous. These layouts are really beautiful. I'm running out of adjectives here!

To all those who doubt Andrea's talents ... HIRE SOMEONE ELSE!!! I have seen Andrea's work in person and ALL of it is stunning. Not just the sepia or black and white stuff. In fact, the colour pics are the most gorgeous. VIVA ANDREA CARLYLE!!! I look forward to you shooting my wedding later this year :)

thanks ladies...people are seriously going to start to think I am paying you!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic Ms. Carlyle.....they rock as usual.....the bride and groom are gorgeous too....compositons are superb! I can't wait to see the decor post.....

I can never get enough of the silhouette near/in front of a window type shots that you do so beautifully! There's going to be a decor post?? Bring it on!

Hi Andrea

Lovely images, great composition for the 1st and 2nd one.

Stunning! Don't worry about having freaked out the bride...if I were her I would have been pissed if you DIDN'T get an awesome shot like that! I mean if a rainbow just hands itself to you, what are you going to do? :-)

With pics like these I think arm flapping will be welcome by an bride you shoot.......These are stunning....the light is just amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

#1 is just superb! nuff said

I love these......

Where was the venue, by the way?

Good point Kate!....will just go into the admin side and ammend the heading, got carried away with that damn rainbow!

At the Cradle...I am dreading my next one there as we had the amazing yellow light and unbelievable blue overcast sky with Eva, the Rainbow with Busi...now we need something like the northern lights to keep up with the past two!

Ok Done! Thanx Kate, venue in the heading....please feel free to spot these things again.

So Andrea, since we are going to be at The Cradle in August..... Can you arrange those Northern Lights for us?

I love these shots, the 1st one in particular. I am so looking forward to you flapping your arms at us!

My pleasure :-) It's me, Katharine of the dreaded Halloween weekend, by the way - told you I was blog stalking!

It's gonna be hard to top these two Cradle weddings, I've got to say! Not to be a downer, but it's the price you pay when you set your standard so high!

Katerine, I realised it was you as the blog gives your email address I wasn't sure if you had your anorak on stalking in icognito, under the name of Kate so did not want to blow your cover and refered to you by the name you put.
Cyndi - Cradle in August...may even resort to buing a "northern lights" backdrop with fireworks in it. There is the erupting volcano one or a Hurricane come Tornado, ...just backdrops you understand so your hair won't get messed up!

Well, I always use my "spare" gmail address for web postings etc, just in case they are visible, but of course it has my surname in it anyway! Kate I just use occasionally for online stuff - it's easier to type and for people to spell! I'm keen for those tornado shots, btw. :-)

Andrea you are out doing yourself again and if you could only harness your "Photographic eye" and sell it you would easily become the next top 10 rated millionaires in the world along with Trump. You know just how to capture true romance, some people write romantic books you write them with spectacular images. I am looking forward to working with you later this year as your second shooter.

Andrea! I really don't know how I missed the link to your site on Jules' note. I just saw these pictures now. I've told so many of my friends about the photographer with the flapping arms (remember the language as well :-). I'm so glad you spotted the rainbow...what a day...bright sunshine, rain clouds gathering, thunderstorm, rainbow and dark sky, horizon with a beautiful orange hue at dusk, all in one day. I think it's a good sign, don't you?? And, by the way, I'm reminded of a certain photographer whose was literally scraping the wet ground shooting away :-) It was indeed worth the few raindrops, and missing out on bubbly :-)

Thanks Paul, but that's the problem with passion, you're not really interested in the Moola! so Mr Trump is safe. I am not after his Cartel.
Busi I am glad to hear that you referred to me as the "scrapping and flapping" photographer vs. Sultry and sexy photographer!!
