Rose Gold Styled Wedding Shoot at Kensington Country Club

Styled Photo shoots for wedding professionals are always a really fun way to exercise our creative muscles, and design something just for us-that is hopefully still accessible to the modern bride. 

My most recent styled shoot at Kensington Country Club was one of the most fun and gorgeous styled weddings I've had the pleasure of shooting. Working with Rebecca Ellis at the venue, as well as every other vendor and model was a delight , and the product came out wonderfully. 


We worked with a Rose gold vintage theme, incorporating pastel pinks and rusty silver



Paradise Paper Shop did a phenomenal job with the romantic dusty pink and gold stationary suite.



The hair and makeup by Blue Water Salon was nothing short of perfection.




Final touch ups



Our bride model, Kelsey Kohler did a fantastic job.



The hair by Blue Water Salon is just lovely. 



As is this flawless makeup


Our groom model, Mark Bowerman, looked dashing in his attire by Black Tie Tuxedo.



Our little ring bearer model, Peyton, is possibly the cutest child ever. 



Modeling with style. 



To compliment our adorable ring bearer, our flower girl model Willow is just adorably perfect.


The floral from Naples Floral Design was just perfect for this uber romantic, rose gold style.
 Her dress by Tie The Knot Bridal Couture complimented this romantic theme wonderfully.



Did I mention how adorable she was?


There were so many adorable design and decor elements, provided by Sweet Southern Charm, who never ceases to amaze. 



Trying to be the flower girl. 


This is the personification of bridal elegance. 



The gorgeous ceremony with more amazing floral work, and white benches provided by Niche Event Rental






Perfect way to bring out the little ones for that trek down the aisle. 


Kelsey and Mark doing a fabulous job of looking "just married"!




These portraits all came out so wonderfully. 







Gorgeous Escort Display



Taking a break and being silly.



The menu cards were the perfect compliment to these rose textured linens by  Connie Duglin Specialty Linen.



Kensington provided gorgeous catering displays.



The sweetheart table is pure perfection. 



Sweet Southern Charm did an amazing job styling these romantic details.



Yum. 



Sweet as a sweetheart table can be. 





For the celebration.



Love the large, lush chairs utilized.



This picture is everything. 



 She wouldn't wear the crown so he did. 



 Paradise Paper Shop knocked it out of the park with the menu cards.



Sweet way to serve salt and pepper.


Finally sitting down! 



Thanks to all of the vendors, this styled shoot turned out just perfect. Cannot wait to collaborate again soon!

Heitman House Wedding in Fort Myers, Florida


 Working with Emily and Justin was, from day one, an absolute pleasure. They are one of the sweetest couples I have had the pleasure to work with. Justin serves our country in the United States Army, and Emily is his devoted and loving wife who stands by his side through thick and thin. How can you not just love a bond that strong?



I cannot not think of a more perfect setting for this adorable couples wedding than the Heitman House; a stunning preserved home in the Historic District of Downtown Fort Myers. From the grand lawn, the charming house itself, and the incredible view of the water, it was the best backdrop for this southern chic wedding. 



Emily was simply stunning on her big day, with a gorgeous gown and soft romantic curls which hung down her shoulders and back. 





The ceremony was so gorgeous, taking place on the grand lawn overlooking the water. . 





The couple used benches to add to the romantic southern feel, with baskets cascading with gorgeous florals. 






The groom anxiously awaits his bride.


Picture perfect first kiss!!


The lovely florals were provided by River District Florist, and added the finishing touches wonderfully to the romantic and natural feel of the wedding. 











There was so much fun decor and quirky items for the guests to enjoy at the reception, including an old fashioned Coca Cola tray, and a bar made from wooden barrels. All of this amazing decor was provided by Country Chic Wedding Rentals  (www.facebook.com/countrychicweddingrental).


















The family was so close knit, and the tears kept coming in the best way possible!




The guests finished the night dancing away to a great DJ under gorgeous patio lighting (and of course, had to have a piece of cake or two!).





All in all, this was a wedding for the books, with two people madly in love who now get to spend the rest of their lives together. 

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Clark!
