Tickled Ivory

This is not your typical wedding day-after shoot, which makes me more stoked to share this session with you. Previously, Heather of Gemmer Photography had wonderfully captured Stephen and Elizabeth's engagement shoot and wedding day celebration. For this occasion, we decided to pair this vintage piano find and decadent 1950's wedding gown with two other styling extremes: unruly hair and rogue makeup. I had so many great photo options to choose from- a problem that is hardly one to complain about at all!

A Sisterly {Bridal} Bond

Cheers to an intimate and dreamy bridal editorial inspired by photographer, Heather Gemmer's own close relationship with her beloved sisters. And who can resist the pillow fight on the beach?

If you have a sister, what event in your life were you most grateful to share together?

"Hitched" Hiking

An engagement session inspired by 1950's vintage styles and enveloped by some of Oregon's finest features (green mossy rocks always get me!), here is Heather of Gemmer Photography's lovely shoot with the musically inclined couple, Elizabeth + Stephen. They certainly brought along their talents on this little hiking expedition, as seen here with that magnificent banjo that Stephen could barely take his hands off...

For more breathtaking views from this shoot, check out the sweet feature from the bridal blog Engaged + Inspired right here.

It is a true pleasure to work with alongside with the super talented photographer, Heather, and once again, my [hair] partner in crime, Kellen Eason! Heather's knack for set styling and creating dreamy photos will make you swoon and Kellen, is well, the hair wizard. Keep your eyes peeled for another editorial with this team involving sisters and brides...[with no relation to that um, unique cable network show whatsoever.]
