Jill someone told me about your work and I came here to check it out. I LOVE IT!!!!! You are great!

Also I thought what a small world! I thought that Trevor was the same Elder Neff I met in Brazil while he was serving his mission but I'm not sure. Then From one of the comment above I know he is the same person. I'm so happy for him!!! If you are talking to them again tell him Feira de Santana said "Hi" to him.
And thumbs up for your work again!!!

Ms. Thomas–there are no words to describe the beauty and nostalgia you captured! Beautiful and amazing work. I am curious though: were a majority of your color shots down on 400 or 800 speed? I can sense of 800 and the creamy-ness is beyond romantic. Thanks! Blessings!

first anniversary part two

02. 2.10

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.  

0006038-r01-007.jpg0006047-R01-012.jpg0006047-R01-016.jpg

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
os9.jpg

couple two: remembering their destination wedding

os10.jpg

couple three: remembering their ranch style wedding

os11.jpg

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

os12.jpg0006048-R01-009.jpg0006048-R01-006.jpg
os13.jpgos40.jpg09680027.jpg

os42.jpgos46.jpg
os44.jpgos45.jpg
os47.jpg
os48.jpg

remember to enter our contest by amorology and me.   win a free engagement session and a style/design consult to make it fun.  just send us a fun picture of you with ORANGES!  also tell us what your ideal date together would be.  to see more detail look here.  

the 2nd and 3rd place will win a boutonniere by etsy's peppermint cloud.  i just adore peppermint cloud's website and am so happy they could be part of our fun contest.  here are the boutonnieres we used for our shoot.
