Rebrand photoshoot with Hipster Mum

Although it has been 9 months since this shoot I realised I had not shared it on the blog yet. I wanted a new shoot done to use when relaunching our membership to “The Celebrate Society” with a new logo/look and focus.

I really think that visuals are so important in the event industry and as a business owner it is key to have some beautiful images you can use for your business which are personal and represent your brand!

Jade Warne of Hipster Mum creates absolutely amazing photoshoots which take the typical “head shot” to a whole new level! I knew she was the right one for the style of shoot I needed and I cannot recommend her enough!

 

The investment was definitely worth it as Jade worked closely with me BEFORE the shoot on the types of images I wanted, props, lighting, the look and feel etc.

She then helped so much on the actual day with directing me and coming up with a range of different photo ideas so I could walk away with a RANGE of images to use for different purposes!

 

 

 

 

I could not have been happier with the images! They blew me away and I would HIGHLY recommend Hipster Mum for ANY branding shoot whether you’re wanting photos of yourself and/or your products.

She KNOWS what visuals work and capture your brand best and works closely with you to ensure you achieve the photos you are after!

She made me completely at ease, made the whole process fun and was a true professional!

Sorbet Pastel Party Feature

This sorbet pastel balloon party was a birthday party where balloons stole the show and surrounded the birthday girl with a delicious pastel sorbet assortment of party decorations from Illume Partyware that both set the scene and offered the opportunity to play!
 
While we can all go crazy with decorations, Illume Partyware wanted to show how you can simplify a party with 3 elements; balloons (3 different varieties), partyware and food!  A fun fresh party using clever styling techniques to inspire a beautiful, memorable birthday with a minimum of fuss.

Rainbow Kids Party Supplies


There is something special about the excitement that exudes from children when they see a rainbow! So why not bring that magic of colour in the sky to create a rainbow themed party. It’s suitable for so many different occasions too, birthday parties, baby showers and christenings. It is also a perfect kids party theme to combine with other themes such as unicorns, ice-creams, ponies, disco… just to name a few!
