wedding | wednesday. all white inspiration.

All white and sparkly and beautiful... and I love it! :) They used burlap for the chair backs. I love the candles on different levels, and the mirrors add dimension and sparkle. Hope this inspires you! :)

tiffany + alyssa

It was such a pleasure to meet these two lovely ladies! Their laughter is contagious! It's so true that these ladies look close enough in age that they could be sisters... much to Tiffany's delight! :) I'm so glad we were really able to capture their personalities and mother/daughter relationship. BEAUTIFUL.

teresa + heidi

Mother and daughter duo, Teresa and Heidi, showed up for photos on what we would have expected to be a warm, spring day. Quite the contrary! :) It was windy and so cold. But, these ladies showed up with smiles on their faces and completely rocked this session! It was extra special to do the shoot on this day, because it was Teresa's birthday... with Heidi's birthday just three days later.

Heidi- you are such a lovely young lady! :)
Oh I love the laughter! :)




Teresa- what beautiful lady you are... so graceful.






Always stay close- you have a treasure in each other!

These wooden letters can add a lovely, personal touch to your wedding day. You can buy these letters inexpensively at a local craft store. You can even paint them your color of choice and pair them with lovely ribbon or fabric.
