Momental in the Woods
Imagine a group of 10 close friends, a warm, crackling fire, real wood paneling, a table set with sequined linens in shades of champagne, a feast of delicious-ness and of course hand painted stationery at every glance. This particular Momental Party, one we lovingly called #momentalinthewoods, still lingers in our memories for all the right […]
Artsy Auction House Wedding
Jessica is one of our Momentals, Kristy’s creative assistant specifically and when her wedding date was set, the plans began flying into action. Jess and Brad’s love story was a unique and wild one, and just the same their wedding needed to be. Their Bohemian Wedding at an Auction House was all personality and more […]
40 Years
Kristy’s parents celebrated their 40th Wedding Anniversary so of course, what a perfect opportunity to craft a festive and artful celebration. Her parents are long time lovers of Country Music, the real variety…think Hank Williams Jr., Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. So Kristy gathered her creative friends to put together an evening filled with old […]
Radiant Orchid Art Shoot
I have to admit, I’m not the biggest fan of purple so when I discovered the 2014 Pantone Color of the Year, I knew my annual shoot paying homage to Pantone’s choice would be a personal challenge. My mind, however, on this particular plum, infused with raspberries and eggplant-hued beauty, was changed. Radiant Orchid Art […]
Georgia O’Keeffe Wedding Inspiration
Georgia O’Keeffe is my muse and has been since middle school when my Mom gave me the book 100 Flowers for Christmas one year. Her grace paired with fierce personality, her skill mingled with expression, her delicate hand juxtaposed with boldness and bravery – oh how her paintings make my heart sing. I’d become fascinated […]
Claire Pettibone Wedding Inspiration
I always say, “I just need an excuse to travel” and this time around my excuse was the stunning collection of gowns from the dear Claire Pettibone. Gathering with like-minded artist friends is a way to energize and recharge and that is just what we did in Atlanta, Georgia for this fussy and romantic art […]
Botticelli’s Lunch
After an extended stay throughout Italy, I’d become quite obsessed with Botticelli’s Primavera masterpiece. Moody darkness mingled with intricate floral and creamy, ethereal tones seem a curious choice for a cold winter’s day luncheon. Drawing on contrasts and enliven the colonial cleanness of our space with organic textures and a subdued palette of rich hues. […]
Andrew Wyeth Wedding Inspiration
Sophisticated Rustic Wedding Invitations…like those Andrew Wyeth himself may have approved of, was my goal… I grew up taking art lessons from the local artist superstar, Sue Hand. She first introduced me to the wonders of Andrew Wyeth with several trips to the Brandywine River Museum in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. Andrew Wyeth made the simple […]
Biltmore Art Shoot
Our team was honored with the invitation to visit Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina. After attending a conference held there just 4 months previous, my creative juices were flowing with dreams of how a modern couple might celebrate in this iconic place…how they might pay homage to tradition while fulfilling their own dreams. So […]
Riverboat Artistic Wedding
My Best Friend’s Wedding was a like a dream-a wonderful realization of so many of our childhood daydreams. Two friends, and yes a very involved groom brought this heartfelt day filled with meaning to life in just under a year. I became the wedding stylist of sorts, and infused into the wedding what I know […]
Salvador Dali Wedding Inspiration
Mr. Dali, one of the most curious artist personalities we all might recognize, took over my brain for the better part of 3 months during the planning of this project. His life, clothing and daily antics were as much art as his canvases were. The Dali shoot is still my all time favorite editorial. We […]
Artistic Barn Wedding Inspiration
I live on a 100 year old farm that no longer produces anything but the calm land on which my home sits. Our family surrounds us in quiet homes along a road we sometimes feel like we’re the only inhabitants of. We share a barn, which has little room for new treasures because it holds […]
