Custom Design Work: Meg's Pink Champagne Wedding
I've just recently completed a special wedding project which I've been working on for the past couple months. Local bride, Meg, came to me shortly after ordering her wedding dress directly from Jenny Yoo's flagship showroom in Chicago. The lucky bride was even measured by Jenny herself, and was able to order a very special colored silk shantung, not normally available to customers! The silk is a delicate pink champagne which compliments her skin tone beautifully! Having ordered extra yardage from Jenny, Meg came to me to request a custom bolero, based on my East Lake design. For a perfect fit, we did a muslin drape directly on her to create the pattern. As the project commenced she also decided to do a custom veil design and an extra matching silk flower pin. This project was an absolute joy to work on! Below are some photos of the process and bits of the finished work. Meg has promised to send me pictures from her wedding so hopefully I can post some of her in the whole ensemble in the next couple weeks.

Photo Shoot Woot!
Whew! Yesterday sure was a busy day! It was photo shoot day for the new birdcage veil and hairpieces accessory line for Uptown Urban Craft! We started at 9am with our photographer Stuart and our beautiful red-headed model Sarah. Everything went swimmingly and I can't wait to get the proofs! I initially intended to only use one model but I couldn't decide between my top two choices so I did a shorter secondary shoot myself later that afternoon with an up-&-coming model named Sami. Since Sarah's photographs were very dreamy and romantic, I did a really fun and playful shoot with Sami. Below are is a look at the process and sneak peak at some of the photos! Enjoy!
