Some of you may remember this cross-gendered wedding party I featured in March. Well, the wedding was shot by Amanda Brooks in Los Angeles, and it’s time you know a little bit more about her and saw more of her insanely stylish wedding photography.

Amanda specializes in retro and theme weddings, and brings a lot of journalist flair to her work.

See, she’s spent the last two years as the backstage photographer with Burlesque scenesters Tease-O-Rama, and so clearly she understands on a core level how to beautiful capture curvy, gorgeous women who are going for that classic, mid-century style.

You’ve just got to see more of these photos…

You may remember when we featured Kerosene Deluxe’s amazing gothabilly hair a few months back — now here’s the full story!

The offbeat bride: Shanah (aka Miss Kerosene Deluxe), Plus-sized pin up model/Makeup artist/Part-time beauty shop manager

What do you get when two British circus performers marry? You get a bride in a candy-apple red dress (made by Miss Katie) with matching candy-apple red pin-up hair, arriving at her courthouse wedding in a gold car with an eye-patched skull on top. You get hottie bridesmaids in little top hats and a fabulous red cake, and from the looks of it, one HELL of a reception.

You’ll find all this and more in the photos from Lucifire and Dave Tusk’s April 2006 wedding. Take your time going through the hundreds of photos on Lucifire’s Myspace. Bonus sweetness: on her website, the bride describes herself as “profoundly, ridiculously, disgustingly happily married.”

(Thanks to Kate for the heads up on these shots!)
