‘Blood’ The Middle East

I wanted to say thank you to all the blogs that have recently featured my work! I’m absolutely honored + thrilled to see my work featured on some amazing blogs and inspiration boards! Here are a few of the recent features, and all these blogs are definitely worth following and feature some amazingly inspiring work. You can click on each feature to read more about it on their blog.

I feel like I have been waiting forever to blog these images! This shoot was a major collaboration for the e-zine Utterly Engaged - if you haven’t checked out this online magazine, please do. There are so many helpful articles on how to have an amazing, budget friendly wedding without skimping on the details. Issue #2 just launched this past week, and many of these images are featured in the e-zine. I really could not of asked for a better team of amazingly talented girls to work with! Bouquets and Floral + Table Design by JL Designs, delicious desserts by Sweet and Saucy Shop, make-up by Devon Duff and hair by Robin Lamph. The theme of the shoot was Eco-Chic, and everything detail and all the dresses were in some way eco friendly. The dresses were from designer Morgan Boszilkov of Natural Bridals and SarahSeven from Etsy. Both designers use eco-friendly, organic and sustainable materials to create their gorgeous designer dresses. Morgan believes that “sustainable fabrics are not limiting, but have endless potential for creating fabulous designs” and after seeing her creations, I couldn’t agree more. The tablescape and bouquets featured local, organic flowers and everlasting flowers carved from bolsa wood and the decor was vintage pieces found at thrift stores and flea markets. Hair pieces were by Batcakes Couture, Twigs + Honey, and Tessa Kim. Jewelry by Voleur de Bijoux, Joie de Vie, and Bella Lu and Me. There are so many images from this shoot, I’ll be blogging at least one or two more posts from it!

The perfect shade of red lipstick. check. hot English accents. check. a gorgeous Villa reminiscent of Italy. check. I love Holly + Ed! Holly has the most infectious smile and Ed was ecstatic the whole day! They had the perfect wedding at one of my all time favorite venues, Villa Del Sol D’Oro in Sierra Madre. The weather started out gloomy and overcast, but right before the ceremony the sun came out and shone for the rest of the celebration. Holly’s gorgeous dress was custom designed by Jose Flores . Holly’s make-up and hair was done by the super talented team of Devon Duff and Robin Lamph!

This post has been a long time coming, but I’m so excited to announce that a brand new, awesome online resource for brides just launched this week!! Utterly Engaged is an online wedding magazine dedicated to the couple that wants to infuse style and creativity into their wedding with every kind of budget! They showcase vendors and fill their pages with pictures, details, tips, and lots of inspiration. A few months ago, I shot a tablescape for the magazine, and you can see that article, titled Midsummer Night’s Dream, on their first issue by clicking the image below… it features florals by Summer from Grey Likes Weddings and cakes from Cheryl Stewart
Here’s a few more images from the shoot…I heart owls + blue thistles

I’m looking forward to the next issue, which will be even more jam packed and feature a shoot I did alongside JL Floral Design and Sweet and Saucy!! I can’t post the images from that shoot until the article comes out, but I will leave you with this teaser that I posted a bit ago…
