Wow, I can hardly contain myself!!! Justin & I have been itching for a few months now to show off these images we shot for Nancy from So Happi Together and Melissa from The Loveliest Day. We had to keep the photos on hush-hush until they were submitted and published in the Southern Weddings Magazine. Now I'm SO excited that the day has finally come to feature this amazing concept shoot on our blog!!!
The concept was put together by Nancy and Melissa, they named it Woven & Spun. Here are the featured spreads, plus some of my personal favorites that didn't quite make the cut for the final print.
Thank you to the lovely Southern Weddings Magazine ladies for the sweet feature! We feel honored, to say the least!

Shirley + Sam are beautiful together, enough said! Plus, they got married at one of my favorite venues in Sierra Madre called the Villa Del Sol d'Oro (you'll see why when you spot the raddest tree I've ever laid eyes on). August 21st, 2010 was a sweet day!
I was super excited to have Angie Sloan second shoot for me, she rocked it! Here's one of her shots on the left, along with the next image below. Thanks Ang!

Sam took it upon himself to make sure Shirley had her "something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue". Look what he gave her for her "something blue", lol!
Notice the box in Sam's hands....
....here's what Sam gave Shirley for her "something new"...love me some diamond tear-shaped earrings!
Behold...the raddest tree I've ever seen! This would be my favorite item of the day!

Could some one please tell me who is the designer of her dress, it's gorgeous!!
(10.07.10 07:25 PM)
Shirley said:
we LOVE the photos, Amelia!! THANK YOU!! and angie, thank you for rocking it out with amelia. the shot of sam standing on the toilet is by far one of my favs from the day. you braved the heat, did your thing AND had a smile on your face the whole time. thank you :)
@Hilary - i got the dress at a small boutique in Pasadena called "The Ivory Suite." I think the designer is Tamara... but I can be wrong. sorry i can't be more help!

Um. Yes. I'm glad I don't have to type out every thought that went through my brains as I was looking through this wedding post... it went something like this: "Oh god...GAWD!! That shot! Dang. Oh ooh! Wow! I need to do something like that... How do they think outside the box like this? Hmmm... Must take a different kind of brain.. OOH! PRETTINESS!" etc. I'm embarrassed for myself. PS killer wedding. :)
