Welcome 2013!

Happy New Year!  We are back after a wonderful holiday.  It’s been a very busy year and we are looking forward to a few months of “down time” when we can meet with newly engaged couples and dream up beautiful and unique decor for their celebrations.  Did you get an extra special gift under the tree or know someone who is sporting a bit more sparkle these days?  Contact us to schedule a complimentary consultation!

2012 was a banner year for us with more weddings than ever before, a slew of new venues to add to the portfolio, and the most wonderful couples.  We launched the new website, have been featured on Style Me Pretty, began holding DIY workshops, and have added to our unique event rental archive.  Not to mention the arrival of our little shop assistant, Jo!

The year ahead is shaping up to be just as exciting as the last.  We are booking up for the coming wedding season and will be offering more DYI workshops to help brighten your winter months.  Stay tuned for those details in the next few weeks.

Be sure to keep a look out for new posts here, more gorgeous photos, and upcoming workshop information.  For now, here’s a look back at 2012 in photos…

 

 

 

Vendor Spotlight – Collinsworth Photography

 

You may have seen Rebekah Collinsworth’s (of the aptly named Collinsworth Photography) beautiful shots in our recent post of Heather & Drew’s Rivermill at Dover Landing wedding.  If not, simply scroll down to the previous post!  We asked Rebekah about her wedding photography and she provided a few more photos from Heather & Drew’s wedding to boot.  Enjoy!

Areas Served:     Eastern Seaboard- Based out of Portsmouth, NH and Charleston, SC

How many years have you been in business?     5 Years.

What makes you stand out from other photographers?    I’m a firm believer that the best photographers are the ones who are the most invisible. I shoot very ‘fly on the wall’ and strive to find the most natural and interesting moments.

What's your favorite part of the work?    Arriving on location for a shoot is exhilarating; there’s boundless energy and excitement to capture.

Are you seeing any trends emerge for the next season?    I’ve noticed that couples are doing more and more anniversary shoots, which I love. Similar to engagement shoots, anniversary shoots can be as creative and elaborate as the couple. I think it’s especially sweet when the couple ties things from their wedding into their anniversary shoot. I’ve seen brides have their wedding bouquets re-imagined, jewelry re-purposed, and even locations re-invented.   

Pricing Information:  Some of my favorite weddings have been small ceremonies and backyard events. I realize that often times this comes from the need to keep within a certain budget. Because of this, I offer small-wedding packages for couples looking to just have their ceremony and portraits captured.

If you have any spare time, how do you spend it? I just got a place in Charleston, SC and have been strolling through this romantic city with my camera and getting excited for the upcoming wedding season. Not to mention… the beaches options are plentiful!
