“I want to be magic. I want to touch the heart of the world and make it smile. I want to be a friend of elves and live in a tree. Or under a hill. I want to marry a moonbeam and hear the stars sing. I don’t want to pretend at magic anymore. I want to be magic.”
― Charles de Lint

I’m beyond thrilled that my Dia de los Muertos photos were featured on Outre Bride on October 31, 2017! After putting so much work into the details of this shoot it was truly an honor to get recognition for my work. I’m so thankful to everyone who helped me bring such an amazing concept to life.
One of the critical aspects of a successful shoot is to work with extraordinary models and vendors and I couldn’t have asked for a better team. These people are amazing professionals!

Yesterday I hosted my first styled photo shoot and I’m thrilled that everyone has been so enthusiastic about it. There are so many incredible shots of these beautiful models and it’s difficult to pick a favorite!
I couldn’t have done this event without the help of some amazing people and I’m so thankful for them! The makeup was created by Drop Dead Gorgeous Artists and the models looked epic! Beautiful gowns were provided by fashion designer Kasha Faye Designs and gave the shoot an extra glam vibe. From cake to rings to flowers and all the other important details I was able to reach out to my friends for help and they really delivered!
For this shoot I put on my creative hat and designed the headdresses and hat, hand painted the grooms jacket, and wrote in calligraphy on the invitation envelopes. I came up with a concept for a succulent garden on the cake table and I’ll be sharing that in a future post.
To see more photos from this shoot from the other photographers go to #ddlmshoot2017 on Instagram.
Now it’s back to editing photos!
