Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.
My friend and planner extraordinaire Courtney from After the Engagement posted a call for interested vendors on her Facebook page. She wanted to enter a contest to win a spot at an industry conference but needed to style a shoot to enter. I had never been part of a styled shoot before and was curious! I volunteered and the rest was history! She pulled this all together in about 10 days! The contest went live today so I’m able to share the outcome. Her vision was Fabulous + Graceful and her inspiration was a ballerina bride wearing black.
Click here to visit Backstage Bridal and see the feature. If you are able, take a moment to comment on the blog at Backstage Bridal to give Courtney a vote to help her win! You can also see her original inspiration board/colors over there and compare how her vision ended up!
The vendors that all contributed to this photoshoot were fantastic to work with! See below for full list! I’m sharing a few different photos that were posted on the other blog today so I hope you enjoy!
Love love love love love! Thank you so much!!
How fun is this? 🙂 Great photos!
I love this! I always prefer weddings that look like a really good party than a copy of whatever SMP is showing lately, and this totally knocks it out of the park! Great shots!
The pictures are amazing and I am sure that the wedding was beautiful, a black gown that pops because of it’s extraordinary beauty. Another Great work Melissa!
