Today I photographed Brett Dorrian Artistry Studios in action.  The team was hard at work dolling up the models for two fashion shows in the Grand Palladian Ballroom.  The fashion show I photographed was for Andrea’s Vintage Bridal.  I love how Brett used the heritage of the model’s gown to inspire the makeup and hair.  There were iconic images of women from the 20’s to the 80’s in the room where everyone was getting ready to serve as inspiration, and the models looked amazing.  To compliment the looks, Adagio paired each model with music for their era, it was so fun to see each model come down the runway and have a blast from the past. 

Any time I’m in the Semple Mansion I HAVE to stop by Posh Bridal Couture and Paperista.  Any interior design lover will just flip over how amazingly chic these spaces are, and of course everyone will appreciate how fabulous the owners are =)  Posh’s gorgeous dresses also have a new addition.  Luxe is a gown company that focuses on gorgeous plus sized dresses, which is a concept I truly appreciate. 

Up in the ballroom were many familiar friends including The Traveling Photobooth, We Cater to You, and Chowgirls Catering.  I was also able to finally meet the talent behind A Day in Provence.  I simply loved the booth and the creative elements in the floral designs!  I also made sure to visit Floral Logic’s space.  I have always admired Eric’s designs and it was fun to chat with him for a while. 

The find of the day is a new company that I am very excited about.  Lime Canary Vintage Rentals.  Amanda started collecting vintage pieces for her own wedding and decided to open a business dedicated to rentals for vintage weddings, events, theater, and staging.  I think this is a fantastic idea and I will definitely be using her services in the future. 

Here are a few images from the day, enjoy!
