Over the past couple of years, we have loved photographing the extensive wedding dress collection of bridal designers, Lindsay Fleming. Their 1920s vintage inspired collection ‘All That Jazz’ has been receiving lots of publicity lately and Lindsay Fleming have been travelling to London to hold appointments with brides to keep up with the high level of interest in their designs.
Recently, one of the images from a shoot of their 1920s vintage style dresses, won Mark the title of Fashion Photographer of the Year at the Scottish Master Photographer Awards. Thought we would just share some of our other favourite images from this photoshoot:
Phew! Just coming down to earth from last night’s Scottish Master Photographer Awards held at Dunblane Hydro. Mark was bobbing up and down out of his seat receiving 4 Certificates of Merit (in Contemporary Wedding, Monochrome and Fashion categories) , one Award of Excellence (in Fashion category) and the prestigious overall title of Scottish Fashion Photographer of the Year 2010. Just think of the studio space required for another 6 certificates and a trophy! Here’s the images and the awards they were given:

As you may have read in an earlier post, Archibald Photography were recently asked to photograph the new collection of 20s inspired wedding dresses from Lindsay Fleming Couture called ‘All That Jazz‘. Lindsay Fleming Couture are award winning bridal designers based in Scotland. Each of their vintage gowns are made to measure at their studio in Scotland and for many years clients who could not visit them in person have used their highly successful mail order service.
Lindsay Fleming Couture have decided this year to make it even easier for brides to have a face to face consultation with a designer and to see first hand the dresses, quality of fabric and workmanship. They have arranged the first in a series of visits to Central London where private consultations and fittings can be offered to clients without travel to Scotland. Their first visit will be on 26th, 27th and 28th March 2010 with further visits planned every eight weeks. The venue for these consultations will be Dolphin House Apartments, Chichester Street, Pimlico, London, SW1V 3LX and appointments can be arranged by contacting Lindsay Fleming on 01864 502522 or by email bridal@lindsayfleming.com . In addition to their 20s inspired collection ‘All That Jazz’, they will also be displaying their celtic and medieval inspired gowns; the ‘Celtic Spirit Collection‘.
Here’s some of our favourite images from the All That Jazz photoshoot (turn down the volume if you are at work!):

Mark had the honour this week of being commissioned to photograph Lindsay Fleming‘s new collection of 20s inspired wedding dresses; a range called All That Jazz. The dresses are phenomenal and I would imagine they are going to be a big hit with brides looking to add the class of a vintage inspired dress to their day. Lindsay Fleming are award winning Scottish bridal designers traditionally best known for their celtic inspired creations. This new 20s range is an exciting new range to their collection offered both as made to measure and as a mail order service.

Ainsley M provided the 20s style make-up – heavy dark eyes and red lips – while Lidia of Volume Hair styled Lauren’s hair to suit the vintage theme. House for an Art Lover was used as a venue to provide an art deco backdrop.
