So I was doing a little web style shopping this morning (yes I do shop at Paper Source!) and had one of those ‘wait a second…’ moments! Ha! I came across some photos I shot for Paper Source a few weeks ago. My shots featured here are the ones in the banner/header of each page. There could be more online but these are the ones I came across first. I have yet to see the holiday catalog that I shot for…I’ve been told it may or may not come out. That’s how the business goes – some photos make it, others don’t :) But I will keep you posted…I thought these would be fun to share! (more…)
The fashion runways walked it and the bridal magazines made it official – gray is the new brown for weddings in 2009! While I still love brown and you should too…gray switches the color palette to cooler tones. It’s one of my personal favs :) Even though gray is a cool tone, it doesn’t mean you can’t spice it up! There are a wide variety of color combinations you can chose from but the added bonus with this trend….is that you can mix and match colors that you never thought would go! Brights, pastels, monochromatic – you can’t go wrong. And keep in mind, gray comes in all tones and variations such as a lavender or pewter (adding a touch of purple or blue to it). So think out of the box!! My fav new combo – lavender and red! More color combinations… (more…)
I can’t count how many times I’ve watched groomsmen try to figure out the diagram of pocket square fold given to them from the rental company! And eventually, either me or my other photographer fix it for them! So here are some helpful instructions for ALL occasions of wearing a pocket square - It’s Hip to Wear Squares.
Whether it’s marzipan, fondant or real it’s all about nature in 2009. The trend started appealing many in 2008 but is in full swing this upcoming year. I’ll talk more about your wedding flowers in another post but anything funky happening in mother earth’s land is happening in weddings! Also, exotic fruit and organic cake flavors will be huge. Pomegranate, blueberry, lemon along with pistachio… (more…)
AMAZING NIGHT! Obama wins, and I witnessed it. What an incredible historical event to experience, words can’t describe. I just got home from the rally and it’s late, so I won’t write much….but wow. It was so great to share this evening with good friends and hundreds of thousands upon thousands of supporters of change. (more…)
Don’t think I need to say anything else :) While we patiently wait for our life changing answer….check out some wedding dress picks from Autumnslings via Etsy (expires Wednesday afternoon).
Hi! First off, thanks for your patience during my super busy month. I promise to post away when things slow down. In the meantime, some good news! While the economy isn’t the greatest…some of Chelsea’s favorite businesses would like to offer some good deals to her readers! Visit the {frolic!} market!
Whew! Today was very eventful…I felt like I photographed million items! Another great day at Paper Source – lots of stuff to do, I barely came up to breathe! I had a fabulous time with this experience, and I hope to do more in the future :) Thanks to John, Lisa, and Elaine for all their help – it was such a pleasure meeting everyone! Enjoy some more… (more…)
Hi! I know I’ve been slacking on the blogging…but busy doesn’t seem to describe things quite right! CRAZY! Thanks for being patient, regular posts will continue soon. So in the meantime, enjoy these photos from today – my first day shooting with Paper Source. All went well, everyone was super friendly and helpful and even though this experience will only last 2 days, until their photographer comes back…it was refreshing to do some product photography again! (more…)
Welcome to Friday! Today I’m asking for my blog readers patience as October is a crazy month for me work wise. The blog posts will be less frequent as I try to get all my post-production done for the season. I promise some great weddings to showcase!! This is what I will look like for the next…for awhile! Cozy socks, lots of coffee and a computer. Thanks!! (like my socks? check out Staunch on Etsy – custom commissions taken)
