TealilyStylebook The Stylebook By Tealily Photography

Today, in Australia we herald the first day of Spring! Of beautiful sun light streaming in, the return of brightly coloured blooms and the start of wedding season!

A little treat for you on this fine day from our lovely friend Trish at Tealily Photography. Trish used her beautiful eye for style and created “The Stylebook”, a beautiful online magazine full of tips and tricks to get the most out of your engagement & wedding photography, special deals & giveaways from wedding vendors, real weddings and interviews with some of her favourite industry peers.

Tealilyphotography Stylebook The Stylebook By Tealily Photography

Trish’s stylebook was inspired by a bride, together they brainstormed with sketchboooks full of ideas. The magazine took on a life of it’s own- it’s dotted throughout with stunning images and is definitely worthy of your morning coffee today!

Do leave Trish your feedback- I’d love to see a Summer issue hit our screens!

You can view the entire magazine above or by clicking here. (The magazine is best viewed in full screen so wait a little while to ensure it has completely loaded!) You can also download a PDF version here.
