Stylish Wedding with Unlikely Guests | A Styled Shoot
There is something wonderful about partnering with other wedding vendors to create something beautiful together – which is why I love being a part of styled shoots! In these shoots, planners, florists, models, beauty artists, and other vendors come together to bring a wedding day vision to life and I’m lucky enough to capture the final product of all their creativity and hard work!
Recently, I was able to be a part of a styled shoot that was one of my absolute favorites because it featured two unlikely guests – a pair of alpacas!
Yes, you read that right. We created a breathtaking wedding day scene with two alpacas and we had so much fun doing it!
The Details
This styled shoot was organized by the always amazing, Christina Corbitt of Corbitt Events. She is a skilled wedding planner and I wrote a blog post highlighting her talents a couple of weeks ago.
Christina gathered a fantastic team of vendors to create this gorgeous, bohemian wedding look. Our models, Shannon and Nick, were so natural in front of the camera and they were a blast to work with. Shannon had her bridal makeup done by Kirstie Archetti of Royal Beauty, whom I highlighted in last week’s blog post. Kirstie did a romantic makeup look that was just right for this shoot. Shannon also had the perfect half up, half down hairstyle done by the wonderful Cameran Sawyer.
Once the couple was all dressed and ready, I was able to photograph them at our gorgeous shoot venue, Accoyo Acres. This venue is the perfect location for a small elopement and I hope I am able to shoot there more often in the future! For any brides who have, unfortunately, had to cancel their weddings due to the Coronavirus – Accoyo Acres would be a beautiful place to elope and still have a magical experience.
I loved the look of our triangular arbor at this venue! Beth with My Girls Florals did an astounding job decorating it with such unique blooms. Additionally, she created flawless bouquets for, not just our bride, but our two alpacas as well! Seriously, how cute are these furry wedding guests?!
I can’t even explain how much fun this scene was to photograph. I hope to see many more alpacas in my future! Honestly, can I just start an alpaca farm now?
Brides, if you are swooning over this wedding look as much as I am, make sure to check out all of the amazing vendors that brought it to life.
My photography stands as a promise to you: your memories will be captured with the utmost care and reverence. As an artisan of image-making, I am deeply committed to seizing not merely the scene but the spirit of your personal narrative. Each photograph is imbued with the attention and sensitivity it deserves, ensuring that the laughter, longing, and love at the heart of your memories are delicately preserved.
You are a rockstar! 💕
