Been working on some Japanese-inspired beauty moodboards at work this week, and stumbled across these. Beautiful photos by Arman Zhenikeyev. He has some really great collections.

Been searching for endless inspiration for a new set of cards. Came across these today and loved them. Sweet, sweet cards by Darling Clementine.

Happy Wednesday! The bachelorette party was a huge success…very relaxing, yet very eventful. Thought I would share her wedding invitations that were done a few months back. Letterpressed on 110lb Crane Letra (I drool over this paper…) with a deep, purple ink. Great paper makes all the difference – especially in letterpress where you can physically tell the difference between great paper and so-so paper by the softness and how it absorbs the ink. This was my first time printing on Crane Letra and let me tell you, it was worth every pretty penny. Katelyn’s mom added to this invite by hand embossing foil for the backing. Assembly credit goes to the Wolfsheimer family and their amazing ways!
Also, special thanks to Sean Brown for the printing resources and assistance. Be sure to check him out!

I put off this blog for a long time.
I found one way or another to wait, be unsure, or just plain procrastinate. Well, I finally mustered up the courage to post to a public forum – and I couldn’t be more excited to have a place to host and share some of my favorite things: photography and design. For those of you that know me, I find delight in the details and there are oh so many details within this realm. I love what I do and feel truly lucky to be surrounded by so many great minds who help me conjure up new and exciting projects. So to you, I say thanks.
Now, I should say, I didn’t start this because I think I am a master photographer or earth-shattering designer, or anything of the sort, but only because I’ve found a medium where I can share this passion and for lack of a better phrase “spread the love”. There is something so incredibly fulfilling about finding the perfect balance between form and function. About showing you a photo of a moment you thought no one saw, or handing you a letterpressed wedding invitation and seeing look on your face when you notice your name next to his for the first time. I LOVE those moments. And even though it’s been said time and time again, you want those moments to count. You want them to be remembered, treasured, and if possible, re-lived.
So in all, I hope this serves as a place for a little inspiration, not only for me, but for anyone who wishes to collaborate, or simply wander. I love new projects, new friends, and new connections. But no more blabbing – without further adieu, here we go!
To start, here are a few images that I love in lieu of the start of our summer season.
