Boudoir Photo Shoot with Dreamstate Photography

March 24 | Artist + Model + Interior Design = Perfection | by Cynthia
_________________________________________________________

When one of our favorite photographers asks us if we know of any places that might be perfect for a boudoir photo shoot; lots of natural light, intimate, soft colors - we think, why not come shoot in our home?  As an event designer, my pet project is my own home.  This is where we like to unwind after being gone all weekend on weddings, shut the front door on the world and breathe a sigh of intimate coziness.  I learned a long time ago that the last thing you should see before you shut your eyes at night and the first thing you should see in the morning is to be surrounded by beauty and the things that you love. 
We were very blessed when we found our home and sharing it has been a lot of fun. Add a very talented artistic photography team, a beautiful model and you are guaranteed gorgeous pictures!

Jasper Winery Photo Shoot

We LOVE weddings!  Plain and simple. But what are designers to do when they have lots of ideas running around in their heads and no wedding to decorate for with those ideas?  Why....you style a Photo Shoot which is exactly what we did at Jasper Winery last month.  We had so much fun with talented Aaron Thomas - our photographer, Pure Bridal - our wonderful fashion expert and Peri Baldwin Strong - our own expert photo shoot stylist who put it all together.
Barring the sun setting in the wrong place [how dare it!],  long shadows getting in the way, the wind blowing feathers to who knows where, running here and there to make sure the details were perfect, we think that the afternoon went by way too fast - that happens when you are having fun!

We have lots of pictures and don't want to spoil you all at once, so we will tease you with these. We are absolutely in love with the plaid and pheasant feather theme!
