Editorial: The White Dress by the Shore
Good morning & Happy Monday!
Justin & I are slowing recovering and edging back into normal life after WPPI (stay tuned tomorrow for our full recap on all that craziness including a brand new film from Jeremy Mitchell!) and I couldn’t think of any better way to come back swinging than by sharing with you this editorial shoot we recently did with Beth Chapman of the White Dress by the Shore, Jennie Fresa of the Jennie Fresa Makeup & Skincare Boutiquerie and Terri Coon of the Timothy Pamment Salon.
Beth & Jennie approached us with the idea of doing a whole shoot with 6 different looks, all about putting a new spin on an old tradition: the bird cage veil. As soon as we heard their ideas, we were in like Flynn (whoever that guy is!) and knew we were in for something good. But never ever, did we guess just HOW good. Although with these three involved, how could I possibly be surprised? I’ll let the looks (and the powerhouse talent of three incredible women, not to mention two absolutely gorgeous models!) speak for themselves!
