The Craft Begins

I just wanted to share with you guys some pictures that I did of an engagement shoot I styled last weekend.  I apologize for the poor quality of the pictures – the photographer that I was working with will surely have better ones, some of which I will post here very soon!

We had a ton of fun doing this shoot.  Wanted to do something kind of vintagey and fun.  There’s lots of elements in this shoot that are important to me personally – he’s wearing my grandpa’s old suspenders, and the blanket that they’re lying on belonged to my great-grandmother.  I love pulling in elements like that, and making use of something that is otherwise just lying around gathering dust.

So, without further ado, the pictures!

She is one of my new favorite stylists.  She worked for Martha Stewart for close to a decade and it’s obvious why.  Her attention to detail and color is astounding.  You’ll have to stop by her portfolio to see more – below is just a small sampling of her skill.

As someone who has a ridiculous affinity for paper goods, her paper crafts section is amazing.  It really is astounding what you can create with such a simple material.

I’m working on starting up an event planning company, so her event detail section is a great inspirational resource.  All of the little pieces are so amazing.

And then oh, the sweets.  There are no words.
