One of the major 'pro's' to a Balinese destination wedding is the amazing local photographer talent available at extremely reasonable prices.

Say my name, say my name – oh yes it’s staying the same
For those who know me well, you may be surprised by my decision to stay Sophie Maxwell. You may question why I'm not taking the name of the love of my life, one with a killer family and particularly amazing parents. It's a combination of reasons really. Maybe I'm a little bit lazy, wanting a…
