Cuppycakes

This month's featured style is Amy Hope from her cupcake business known as "Cuppycakes". It was obvious when I met Amy about her love of life, pink, and all things cupcake related! Amy is a young entrepreneur from West Auckland, NZ with a great wardrobe! When we put together this fashion shoot, I wanted all the images to really show off Amy's beautiful bubbly personality and of course, how naturally stunning she is. This shoot was a piece of cake *no pun intended* ...All clothing and accessories belong to Amy, and we styled her just for her shoot along with four batches of cupcakes she had just lovingly baked herself. The best part was getting an edible sample of these little beauties... Here is a little snippet about Amy's business and how she started it:

"Cuppycakes started in April 2012 in my mum's kitchen, which I always relate to "made with love" home baking - which I always try to incorporate into my cupcakes by my attention to detail, and the amount of time I spend on each cupcake to make sure it is perfect. Eventually, I became obsessed with sprinkles, cupcake swirls, and anything sparkley I could put on them! My love for cupcakes only grew from there, and my best friend encouraged me to make a Facebook page, so all my friends and family could keep up to date with my creations. I began doing orders for friends and family, with word of mouth and the power of Facebook getting around, I began doing orders for the public! My next goal for this year is to start selling Cuppycakes at local markets, and hopefully one day in the future - have my own little store! ♡ " -Amy Hope.

The Blossoms Next Door

I couldn't contain my excitement for this shoot. I had a vision somewhat in my mind of the whole thing as soon as I saw the most amazing white tree just burst into blossom, right beside an urban mall with a carpark! Although an unlikely place I figured that with the right amount of tweaking it could end up looking like a dreamscape. I am really interested in creating extravagant fashion imagery that also documents the many facets of the style I am inspired by... The birdcage is one of my favourite props and you can purchase one yourself from Kmart for only $12 NZ. Pretty sweet deal.

So yes, if you haven't noticed I love pink, pretty things and an overload of cuteness. Sparkle is always a bonus...
