A Peek into the Studio – Starry Night Wedding Invitations
A sophisticated spin on a Starry Night concept is where we began with this hand painted wedding invitation collaboration. Our couples had a few requests; ultra thick stock, silver foil and intense color but without loosing elegance. {We began with the idea of creating our own, intense stock by painting each with shades of indigo […]
My Story is Art – Leafy Watercolor Patterns and Botticelli’s Nursery
I’ve said it before, so bear with me friends… {painting is my heartbeat} In the early years of Momental it was difficult to find time to paint just for me;whatever was inspiring me most as I had no employees and did all the work by my lonesome. Things have changed a bit now and I […]
Inspirations – Cecil Beaton Wedding Invitations
I love those moments when for whatever reason, you discover a new artist. An artist that you feel with your whole being you should have known about and had the chance to be inspired by all these years…. Rebecca, a new Momental Bride, introduced me to Cecil Beaton this week, who, in his time was […]
A Peek into the Studio – Modern Watercolor Wedding Stationery
Modern for me as an artist and designer speaks of clean lines, edited details and uncommon materials. Modern for me isn’t always limited color palettes or minimal textures. {Modern on the contrary is the effortless dance between glimmers of tradition and interpreted techniques.} Perhaps a full painting is whittled down to a single, expressive brushstroke. […]
Press – Artsy Auction House Wedding in Mingle Magazine
Jess and Brad planned a wedding that mirrored their unconventional love story beautifully. {Set in a dilapidated cathedral with dinner and partying to follow in an auction house, I had the privileged of experiencing it all first hand.} You see, Jess is a Momental and when I learned she was getting married I put my […]

As Seen In – Watercolor Italy Art Shoot in Destination I Do Magazine Part II
{As an artist, I dream of weddings in compositions – much like a painting.} Balance, sheen, negative space all play into stationery design.

As Seen In – Watercolor Italy Art Shoot in Destination I Do Magazine
My three weeks in Italy last October still feels like a dream… {A dream of days where time seems to stop or at the very least slow to a pace where you feel every feeling; every smile, color, ray of sun, drop of rain; where time never seems to disappoint with all it’s grandeur and […]
The New Momental is Live!
I’ve thought long and hard about the word new. For some, “new” may imply, improved, reworked, redone…all because something was wrong, right? But no, the word new for me and Momental, means something very different. New design, new logo, new styling… yes, our website features all those things. A stronger voice, a distinctive style, a […]

Heirloom Shoot
To me, the word Heirloom conjures ideas of something clean, fresh and authentic…untouched, really. The word Heirloom inspired every moment of this project, from the farmer florist grown blooms we used, to the wood and watercolor stationery I created. Downpour for Hours could have been the name of this project, as it rained buckets that day. […]
Throwback Lobster Boil
I’m a big believer in treating your team right. We work hard…really hard. Yes, we create invitations and have the chance to paint beautiful things everyday and talk to interesting people BUT we work incredibly hard. Long hours, sometimes tears and exhaustion all deserved to be recognized and rewarded. One particular season in Momental History, […]
