In Love with Sugarlove

Last week Annabelle and I made the trip to Sydney for the official launch of the simply gorgeous Sugarlove studio in Woollahra. Leigh and Bradley were the perfect hosts, providing simply delicious food from Katering and champagne trom Tattinger. They have done quite simply a marvelous job of their new studio. Of course pictures of Sugarlove weddings adorn the walls giving it a warm and homely feel, something you notice as soon as you enter the studio. Every bit of detail has been carefully crafted by Leigh, making it the perfect place to sit down and discuss your wedding day photography. Here's a peek at the studio and some of the guests who attended. To learn more about Sugarlove's fabulous work visit www.sugarloveweddings.com or www.sugarlovepictures.com.


We love that Leigh has kept the amber crystal door handle on the main door, one of the buildings original features
