Carrie Wildes Photography

Every so often we do inspiration photo shoots that is just something a little different to boost our creativity and it's fun too:-) Jana, from Events in Bloom, and I had been talking about doing a photo shoot that was old Hollywood Glam with elegant golds, ivory, pink, candleabras, and interesting furniture. If you remember seeing the decor in my house, I actually bought a number of interesting pieces from Shabbyed Up Chic. Gale is amazing, and really an artist with furniture and she has started collecting, and renting items for weddings, so we got her in on it too. We wanted an outdoor, natural setting and the huge trees and open lawn at Karnes Stables was perfect. I love the seating area with the huge window frame and beaded chandalier. Pearls, chalkboard seating chart, and lots of candles. A huge thank you to Tara and Matt for being our fabulous models!! Some of my favs are the ones in the mirror. Enjoy!

Carrie,

Haley,

destination wedding,

weddings

Beach chic, with rhinestone and Tiffany blue accents was Amanda and Russ' wedding style. The joy of their lives, Addison, is their little girl who just turned 2! Addy's dress was a super cute little mini version of Amanda's beautiful gown and I love Amanda's Tiffany blue sparkly shoes. It was SO windy and even a little bit chilly (for Florida anyway:-) but you can't beat the beautiful sunset. Their friends and family traveled from all over for their destination wedding you can tell this was the offical celebration but they have been a family for a long time. Congrats!!!! xoxoxox
