I am naturally drawn to couples that want to incorporate their own personal style into their wedding day. I absolutely love when clients march to the beat of their own drum and I wanted to stylize a shoot with that same frame of thought. I built the design for this shoot from three simple rules: 1. The bride had to be barefoot and in a colored dress 2. I wanted to use very organic and earthy elements while keeping things beautiful 3. We HAD to have a bird!

This shoot was so much fun to put together and took two days to complete due to inclement weather. Luckily, we had a phenomenal photographer who was able to work well under pressure. Our shoot was held at The Hermitage Museum and Gardens in Norfolk which is a historical property with a lot of beautiful features and landscaping. It was the perfect location to bring my bohemian vision to life! Our intern Gracie was the bride, and my brother Daryl played the part of the groom. For just meeting that day they had some great chemistry and I’ve already started planning their wedding (just in case!).

We worked with some very talented wedding professionals on this shoot who were not only excited about my vision, but they knocked it out of the park!
