Recreated photos of a French past (Rousse)

Andrew Lawrence, the Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre, a stranded bride, and the ruler of the universe (Rousse)

A hen party goes shopping (Rousse)

Bridezilla drama (Rousse)
This bride was the most demanding I had ever come across. Rather than a wedding ceremony, her nuptials comprised a full scale theatrical performance over five acts, during which every guest was expected to play a speaking part.
