Super Moon 2013

My husband came in the house and told me to grab my camera and "come on."

He wanted me to Shoot the {Super} Moon. 

I've learned manual camera settings are a must for photographing the moon. I played with a few settings and got these two different pictures.

New Jade Burlap and Lace Wedding Bouquets

I recently ordered "JADE" burlap and am loving the new color for bouquets! I staged a photoshoot on the dirt road to show the three sizes of burlap and lace bridal bouquets I make for my etsy store.
The large Bridal Bouquet is on the left, with the medium size bouquet in the center, and the small bouquet on the right.
 To me the jade burlap is more of a light turquise or teal and works well with the tan, chocolate brown, and cream colored burlap roses.

 The medium and small size bouquets are the popular choice for bridesmaids to carry. The small bouquet is also a good size for a toss bouquet.
 The bridal and medium size bridesmaid bouquets for this rustic wedding had pearl accents in the center of each rose. The large and medium bouquets have the lace collar, while the small bouquet does not.

The bouquets easily sit in Mason jars and can be displayed at a wedding reception in a similar fashion. Just have an empty fruit jar sitting on the tables and the bridesmaids can place their bouquet in the jar when entering the reception. Have an another jar on the bride's table to display the bridal bouquet for everyone to admire. Your wedding guest will be impressed with your non-traditional, alternative bouquet choices.

Heather's Burlap and Lace Wedding Bouquets

Heather emailed me today with pictures of her Burlap and Lace Wedding Bouquets. Her order was one of the first custom wedding orders I did last year. I get excited when I get to see the creative ways the bouquets are photographed and all the places my creations get to go.
 
 
We used tulle to satisfy Heather's desire to have shades of purple incorporated with the tan, chocolate, and cream burlap. Ivory lace and pearl accents were also included in the bouquets. 


The rustic, elegant, outdoor ceremony was held on a farm at the edge of the woods last September.
The beautiful bride and bridesmaids! I love the plum dresses against the green trees 




Thank you Heather for sending me pictures of your wedding and giving me creative free reign to design your wedding bouquets! You were a pleasure to work with! I wish you and your husband many years of happiness together.
