After attending my first ever photography workshop (branches & light)… I was instantly inspired to do a styled shoot. Not just any styled shoot but one that I could display who I am and what I love as a photographer.  I thought about it for months… and finally pulled together some ideas I had running through my head.  I enlisted the help of Elizabeth to brainstorm with me and see if we could bounce different ideas around. I knew Elizabeth and I had the same style and love for all things simple, fresh & vintage! Since Elizabeth had just finished planning her own wedding in May I knew she would be great for the job!  We did everything ourselves… from Elizabeth’s hair & make up to the weaved blanket she laid on.  Everything was done by us… which is probably why I’m so proud of it! ha!

I am beyond excited with how this shoot turned out! It was EXACTLY what I imagined it to be in my head… but even better!  Love when that happens!  We were blessed with a gorgeous (but HOT) July evening. We couldn’t have asked for better light… it was perfect!
