welcome to part two of the fun shoot i worked up with amorology weddings. we had so much fun and i still have so much to share.




















inspiration: this is a vintage inspired shoot. using an old bridal magazine, vintage attire, record player, and even a couple vintage chairs. but we wanted a vintage inspired shoot with an element of beauty and elegance.



theme: we wanted to create a nostalgic feeling, that was reminiscnent of each couple's wedding day. we also wanted to honor traditions and to remember the moments that begun their lives together. we imagined our couples beginning a new tradition on their first anniversary and gathering friends together to celebrate.
the couples each re-created photos that reminded them of their actual wedding day:
couple one: remeber their rainy seattle wedding

couple two: remembering their destination wedding

couple three: remembering their ranch style wedding

using the record player, each couple danced to the first song they danced to on their wedding day.
