Wildgrass Photoshoot

I love fall, it’s my favourite season of the year. After my weddings for the year are all done and the air starts getting crisp, I begin to feel incredibly inspired for a new season. It’s a good time of reflection and to do some more personal projects for myself, including this one.

My friend, Onyx of Amoda Weddings was my gracious model and we went out with her husband one beautiful fall afternoon to Iona Beach for this series of fall-inspired images. Fall, to me, is such a contrast of textures and I wanted to try to highlight that as well as introduce a new concept for a wedding bouquet, well one that I have never seen before, and that was a wildgrass bouquet. Since Onyx is a florist by trade, she obliged to making the bouquet and include her own personal touches on it (the pine cone flowers).

The Ellebay gown was the perfect dress for the concept and Emily worked some magic with her skills to make Onyx look like a beautiful, natural fall goddess. It was everything I wanted, really.

This shot was also featured in Style Me Pretty Canada, which was exciting as well. My second Style Me Pretty feature!

I hope you have enjoyed this shoot, I’m hoping to do some more in the off-season!

Happy weekend =)

A Tweetup, Canoeing and Other Things

I have been slacking on the 101 in 1001, or rather slacking at posting that is. Things are slowly getting ticked off and today I wanted to update the list!

 

Well, a paddleboat was as good as it was going to get, sadly.
My son took one look at the canoe and screamed.
We’ll have to work on that next summer.
Harrison Lake, September.

 

Yes, yes I did. And yes, it was kind of lame. Rather than talking to
people, people were tweeting each other the whole time. Granted
there were prizes to be had, but this was something I don’t think
that I would really want to do again!

The {SnapShack} went on the road up north to Smithers!
There were many laughs to be had and everyone had a great time!
