    Wedding cake fun!

    My sister makes cakes. She even makes the flowers, herself, out of sugar paste. She is highly skilled in Sugarcraft.

    She had just finished making a Wedding cake and had to deliver it yesterday.
    So, before she delivered it I went to her house to have some fun
    shooting it.
    Oh my goodness! I had sooooo much fun taking the pics and I am so
    happy with them.
    Most of them are natural lighting but I did have a little go with my
    flash too. (Bounced of course).

    Before anyone asks, no my sister didn't make the cake toppers but she has done in the past. She did, however have to change the guys hair colour and she gave him a gold waistcoat.

    I just thought you might like to see some wedding cake pics a little out of the ordinary. :thumbsup:

    Re: Wedding cake fun!

    wedding cakes are so much fun to photograph and design---I've been doing it on the side for about 7-8 years+ here's one I decorated(with fresh flowers)...I only work with Fondant and made my own wedding flowers out of sugarpaste(stephanotis and roses)for my wedding cake...I LOVE these shots you've brought the "bride and groom" to life! Your sister is very talented

    Beautiful work Nat!!!



    Yeah she has done more elaborate cakes than that but that's what the customer wanted. (Her own wedding cake for example...tut)

    #1 My twin sister's, Diana & Susan, made the wedding cake for Diana's wedding. All the flowers and leaves are sugar paste and were made by them too.
