Styled Shoot {makes me swoon}

 Since the announcement of the name change, creativity has been over-flowing. Styled shoots and real weddings are underway! 

Our first (of many) styled shoot was with Brian Leahy of Brian Leahy Photography! I can't say enough good things about Brian, whom is a good friend of mine and talented photographer. We've been dying to work together on a styled shoot and it finally happened! Yesterday! 

I cannot wait to share all of the goodness from the shoot! We had an awesome and solid team. Archive Vintage Rentals, Classic Party Rentals, and Geronimo Balloon Troopers just to name a few! We're at the edge of our seats and can't wait to share the photos with you! 

In the meantime, you have to enjoy the sneak peak from my ipad...not even close to Brian's talent :/

Real Weddings- Peyman and Sheree

I have a couple of posts of some of the past weddings I've worked on. This year has flown by so fast and at the same time I'm so thankful! 10 weddings/events have been planned this year! My numbers tripled from last year! True blessing indeed and I am forever greatful to have the honor to plan such amazing events. 

So back in September, two weddings happened. One in LA, at Smog Shoppe (which I'll talk about in my next post) and one in Laguna Niguel at the Ritz Carlton. Peyman and Sheree were a funny pair. They understood each other and they knew exactly what they wanted. 

Brian Leahy and his team captured the full romantics of this wedding! Styled by Nara Kwon (and a sweet friend of mine), the logistics/planning was laid down perfectly without a hitch :) 

Hope you enjoy these photos as much as I drooled over some of the prettiest captured moments. 

My favorite was this showstopper of a veil

Gorgeous day for a wedding!

Sheree made sure her party was ready to party

First dance song was by Nina Simone, which now happens to be one of my favs :)

These vases were made by Sheree and her bridesmaids! I love a good crafty team ;)

Brian Leahy Photography

Last week Brian updated my look! When it came to having to update my bio page on my website (and a few other photos) I turned to Brian of Brian Leahy Photography for that one. Brian's use of bold colors is completely my style. It was his idea to go to the Venice (CA) canals to take the photos and it was his idea for me to bring in at least 6 dress choices for the shoot. That's why he's the photographer! 

Brian is great with direction and he's just a delight to work with! I love all of the new photos, but now I have to choose just 1 for my site. What do you think should be the main bio photo? Check out more of Brian's photos here.

One of the first shots Brian took. One of my favorites!

The house on along the canals in Venice were gorgeous!

A little presie!

I made this bouquet in 10 minutes for the shoot! It's still sitting on my side table in my living room!
