Oh goodness, where do I even begin? Well, maybe from the beginning. ;) Brittany and I met up for coffee back in November and had an amazing chat about life, business, and the Lord. We also talked about how easy it is to get burnt out and only pick up your camera for sessions instead of capturing your own life or shooting for yourself. It’s not very difficult to simply stay in one place and never challenge or inspire yourself to grow. And I truly believe that the most amazing and emotional art is created when people just shoot for themselves and let go of the pressure to be perfect while allowing themselves to be creative! That is what this shoot was all about. An opportunity to do something a little different and make something beautiful. I just love it. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to plan this shoot with Brittany and all the fun moments that went into it. Brittany has such a creative eye and was a blast to work with on the shoot! From the copper chandeliers to the confetti, everything came together so perfectly. A huge thank you to all the amazing vendors who worked with us!! We couldn’t have done it without them!! And Steven and Brianne were just the best. It was in the 20’s and windy – but they were such troopers and totally rocked it! Thank you guys for all your help and amazing attitudes! Hope you all enjoy!
