I’ve been holding on to these images for so long at times I thought I might burst! Sharing this session with you brings me so much joy. First, it features the beautiful bride, Cameron, someone who is dear to my heart, a part of one of my favorite couples of the year. Second, this session allowed me the opportunity to work with a network of friends in the wedding world who are so undeniably talented. How much fun is it to go to work with your friends? SO MUCH FUN. Emily, of Bird Dog Wedding, and I have been chatting forever about collaborating on a shoot and finally we had the chance with Cameron! We scoured the antique stores looking for the perfect european inspired details to compliment Cameron’s beauty and likeness to Grace Kelly. She was the perfect subject to photograph. Ellie Vixie made Cameron even more beautiful (if that’s possible) while Jenny Baer delivered three gorgeous mini-wedding cakes. A little Marie Antoinette and a lot Grace Kelly – here are some of my favorites from our styled (real) bridal session at the Chateau Bellevue.

What a beauty! Merideth reminds me of Rita Hayworth, the glamourous redhead + Hollywood movie icon from the 1950s. She is as sweet as she is beautiful. Keeping this bridal session a secret until the wedding was so hard to do! I’m so glad that I can share these with you now that Merideth + Ian are married (their Mercury Hall wedding post will come soon)! Merideth’s wedding gown is by Jim Hjelm. Shoes by Badgley Mischka.
