Hi Lindsay
Thanks for your beautiful comment! Sounds like we have a lot in common in that we get inspired from our family members. I would say that New York Bridal Week is a great starting point for seeing the brilliant new collections from the fashion designers. A fashion shoot will definitely stem from the new trends seen there. If it's for my blog and a personal project, ideas will just pop into my head mostly when I am outside or playing around with my many props or inspiration boxes that I put together. Sometimes I will have a piece of fabric or an object lying around for years before I use it! Thanks again and stay in touch because there may be some workshops on the horizon!

Weddings by The Ritz Carlton Deco Inspired Shoot
It's finally out! This shoot took place on August 30th in Brooklyn and it has been hard to keep this quiet for so long. Inspired by the Great Gatsby movie which who-knows-when-is-coming-out, I pulled gowns and accessories reminiscent of the era complete with feathers, beads and fur. The gowns ...
