CATHLEEN JIA

For a year now, we have had the pleasure of sharing a studio with the sweet and talented Cathleen Tan. We would like to dedicate this post to Cathleen as she prepares to venture away from our Hawthorn shop to bigger and greater dreams in Elsternwick, and share with you some of her work that we have had the honour of collaborating with.

'Cathleen Jia' began in 2011 as Cathleen's vision in creating vintage style bridal gowns came to life. Her love for intricate beading, delicate lace and glamorous evening dresses have resulted in stunning bridal gowns that are elegant and beautifully hand crafted.

Each project never really felt like work as we always had so much fun working with Vanee from Babydolls Make-Up Artistry; Simone Smith,  Tarryn Krysten and Jennifer Melendez who helped us model the stunning dresses; Eliska Lam from Ruffles and Bells Stylist; and Lucie from Lulu Bird floristry.   

Cathleen, the team from TRUphotography would like to wish you all the best at your new studio. We know this is not goodbye but we will surely miss having you around and being surrounded by your gorgeous gowns at the office. You are such an inspiration to have in the wedding industry and we look forward to our next catch up. 

Luv Cung and Leslie xoxo

P.S. CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement! We know you will have a blast designing your own wedding dress =)
