Any chance to collaborate with other creatives is a good one. Remember back in November, we put on and shot this lovely Fall engagement shoot out by the lake? Well us ladies put our heads together again a couple of months ago and dreamt up another inspired shoot — this time for the Spring — complete with a packed full list of amazing Seattle wedding vendors. So LADIES, if you’re looking for a venue, florist, baker, calligrapher, stationery design, dress ideas, make-up artist, or furniture rentals, look no further. Each and every one of these people were a dream to work with and made this shoot 100x’s better. I highly suggest reaching out to them if you’re in need for your upcoming nuptials.

We wanted to help showcase an AMAZING new venue in the Pioneer Square area of Seattle, (that’s available for rental for any type of event, not just weddings) for a Spring, jewel-tone, inspired shoot (think navy, ruby, emerald, plum…instead of your classis pastels). When you think Spring, I think everyone thinks outdoors, soft touches, but Stacy, Kate, and I went a different route in order to give inspiration to those who may want to (or have to) celebrate indoors. Bold colors, a glamourous and bohemian look, vintage tables cape, indoor greenery…the whole bit.

HUGE shout out to Mrs. Stacy Anderson who pulled out all the stops once again to create a beautiful spread, and Floor 13 for letting us totally take over your space and shoot all dang day. Brick walls, concrete floors, giant windows, small loft, full kitchen, and amazing furniture pieces by the owner herself, Tamara Codor, this place is seriously the coolest. We ate, we drank, we shot, good times were had by all …and what makes it a bit sweeter is a lovely feature on 100 Layer Cake this morning! Be sure to stop there and check it out.

Here, I’ll show you my take of the shoot and some of my favorite frames, a mix of both film and digital….beware it’s a long one!
