Happy Monday! I hope your weekend was wonderful! I certainly soaked up the opportunity to relax, though I managed to make Pioneer Woman’s migas for brunch yesterday (I must be gearing myself up for our photo shoot at Zoetry Paraiso del Bonita in Riviera Maya next week). We’ve got some fun inspiration coming your way to give you a little sneak peek of what we’re doing, so get excited!
We’re starting today off with a fantastical Peter Pan inspired photo shoot. The childlike sentiments and young love of Peter Pan readily lends itself to imaginative interpretations. Christen and Lauren of Sassyfras Studios (a photography team of two sisters…how cute?) put together this darling shoot using themes from Peter Pan as their inspiration. I hope you’ll see from this session how fun it can be to play up specific elements such as Wendy’s the thimble “kiss”–it’s so meaningful and well-understood. Tying emotion and memories with objects can be a wonderful way to connect with guests at a wedding! Be sure to read below for a bit more info from the Sassyfras girls.
We partnered up with a few fabulous vendors to do an amazing Peter Pan Styled E-session. The idea of youth, and love, makes me so happy. We really wanted to focus on Wendy {Darling’s} bedroom, and the scenes where peter lost his shadow, and where they exchanged their hidden kisses. We used alot of lines from the books, which you can see incorporated throughout the shoot. Rachael’s dress is a one of a kind from Vintage Opulence, and her shoes are Anthropologie.
The cakes and desserts {buttons cookies} were made for us specially by Cakes by Julia {Sugar}, and the hair done by Ashley Miller hair designs. The bed set and dresser is and early 1800’s antique set that is almost identical to the one used in the 2003 Peter Pan. The terrariums were DIY, along with the chandelier, and all of the banners. The silverware set is from Woodenhive. The design and lettering was done by Sassyfras.
