Happy New Year folks! I hope the coming year holds many amazing and wonderful moments for you all. I love the feeling of a fresh start that the new year brings us - although I must admit I'd just like to hit the pause button for a good week or two in order to simply take stock and prepare for the coming year and get uber organised. If only we had that luxury! We have SO much beauty in store for you over the coming months but before we launch into that we want to take a few days to reflect on all the talent and goodness that 2016 bought us, starting off today with our favourite 8 engagement shoots from the year.
