A Peek into the Studio – Peach Wedding Bouquet Watercolor Invitations

Last week was peppered with the painting of two very floral bouquets.  Both of our couples adored a blushy-pink color palette and a mix of classic blooms like Ranunculus, Peach Amaryllis and Garden Roses.  First up was Kaitlin’s bouquet…with the lovely Pieris added to the mix. The original was quite vibrant so when it came […]

A Momental Girl Get's Married – Rustic Engagement Session with ADG Photography

There is something effortless about these images.  These shots feel like Brad and Jess woke up one morning and decided to take a walk to hug, love and goof around. They just happened to do it all with Amber around.   Nothing overdone, nothing too contrived, just simple beauty captured on the hottest of summer […]

My Story is Art – Lisianthus and Snapdragon Watercolor Pattern

With summer in full bloom (pun intended), I’ve been painting the weekends away.  Whether I pluck the freshest from my Mom’s garden or find some pretties at the local market, there has been no shortage of flora for me to capture.  Last weekend I found the most gorgeous creamy, blushy Lisianthus.  Rich, violet snapdragons were […]

My Story is Art – Handwriting Found

Emails have replaced long walks.  Quick texts have replaced postcards.  Letter writing is considered an heirloom skill reserved only for those of us with time to kill.  Handwriting is loosing footing in this flurry of a world.  I’m determined to keep a stronghold. Last year we collected a bunch of vintage postcards for this project.  […]

A Real Momental Wedding – Montelucia Resort & Spa Wedding

When Jenna first got in touch and was swooning over this invitation seen on Style Me Pretty, I couldn’t have been more thrilled.  Nothing is quite as satisfying as having a dream design created “just because”, become a couple’s real wedding stationery inspiration! How fitting that Jenna and Zachary’s  entire celebration made the front page […]

My Story is Art – Re-discovering My Hours

Last week I spent a few evenings getting acquainted with the newest volume of Kinfolk magazine.  The narrative “Undocumented Hours” was particularly curious and complex and has since inspired my to read again and again. It begins…. “The past few years have levied a strange burden of proof upon our backs, a burden to account […]

This year I feel like Peony season just slipped through my fingers.  This magical bloom, the muse of so many artists and designers is only with us for a short time.  Luckily Janie Medley paid homage to the big and bountiful peony and allowed me a moment to linger a bit with the flower I […]
