Sometimes you just want to dress and bunch of girls up, do their hair and makeup, and create something beautiful. So five brides and five bridesmaids was born. Inspiration for all you brides out there on this beautiful Thursday.

Thank you Vale and Vine for featuring my paired down inspiration shoot. Loved photographing With Love Bridal’s Maggie Sottero gown “Madrid” and the beautiful Pronovias veil with florals from and in Full Bloom Floral’s space. Makeup by One Fine Beauty and Hair by Showpony.

I find the impact, romance, and playfulness of a veil can be truly captivating. I love the way light is diffused by fabric and texture and the mystery the veil creates. Thanks Vanessa for playing model for me. You’re gorgeous.

It rained the day Tim proposed. They were living in Australia and Caitlin received word that she would have to go back to Canada on short notice. Tim knew he couldn’t let her leave without asking for her hand.
