Studio Visit

The other week, I had the chance to welcome one of the talented ladies behind Vineyard Bride, Nataschia Wielink. In addition to being one the blogger and curators on Niagara's go-to wedding site, Nataschia is also a super talented photographer (You can check out her website here). I was so grateful to have her come and spend some time in my little studio world...Ironically enough, I was working on a bridal bouquet for the next day--a wedding Nataschia shot! (Those gorgeous images are coming soon! Stay tuned for those!)

In case you missed the full write up that was featured on the Vineyard Bride website, you can see that here. 

Here is a little snapshot into my studio space and the behind the scenes...

Early Spring Wedding at Pillar and Post

And so here it goes!! Wedding season 2016 is officially in full swing!!

To start the busy season off, we are completely in love with this little wedding at the Pillar and Post from last month. Tara and Rick were married in the Rose Garden, with an intimate dinner reception to follow in the Old Library. Afterglow Images documented their day and we are so pleased with the way things turned out!

Enjoy the first of many more spring weddings to come!

Ice Wine Wedding Inspiration

I am the first to admit, I am not a huge fan of winter. I will take a humid, sticky, Niagara summer day over snow when given the chance. However, after seeing these images come to life of our winter wedding inspiration at Vineland Estates Winery, I may be a more appreciative of the beauty of winter. 

This week, our Ice Wine inspired photoshoot was featured on Niagara's, Vineyard Bride. Shot by Adrienne Gelbart Photography, you can see the link for the rest of the vendors and full post HERE. 

If you haven't had a chance to check out Vineyard Bride yet, along with the Swish List (a collection of some of the most amazing vendors, including ourselves!), as well as look into their upcoming bridal show in April at Honsberger Estates, then do yourself the favour and look into it! Some daily wedding inspiration showcases some of the best of the best that Niagara has to offer! 

Heather and Russell

Winter weddings...usually when I think about them I imagine white, fur, deep purple tones, and candlelight. Not for these two....Their small, intimate wedding happened right in their own home, with their friends and family all around. Heather made some of the most beautiful decorations herself, and choose a collection of bright colours for her February wedding. Honestly, nothing but happiness and smiles all around! Love it!

A Seaside Editorial

I guess I will always be an artist at heart. 

Everyday, in some little way, do I experience a creative process. But working on bringing a team together to help me bring my ideas to life, now that became a whole other ball game. A few months ago, I had a thought about wanting to create something that was true to me and my personal style. Literally steps from my studio door, did the private beach along the lake scream at me to become a backdrop for a styled shoot. My own little piece of tranquility needed to be shared. 

Enter in so many talented artists...With different styles, personalities, and passions. So many talented vendors came together to create such a beautiful shoot that I am so humbled to share with you, and also that was chosen to be published by 100 Layer cake. 

To see this come full circle... It has been an experience I will always remember.
