teasers

Hello all! I just wanted to share a couple of photos from the shoot we did on Tuesday. I made the dress, the hair piece and bouquet(not pictured). I look forward to getting more photos back from the amazing photographers Jodi Miller Photography and Josh Gooden Cinematography! And a big giant thanks to our gorgeous model Becca, she is stunning!

Here is a little taste of the french countryside courtesy of myself, Jodi Miller of Jodi Miller Photography and Janie Medley of www.jmflora.com! The rest of the pics are on my website's gallery at www.sunshowersandrainshine.com. We had a long, hot and wonderful day in Richmond putting this together! Enjoy:-).

sneak peek

Here is a little hint at my new website in the works. I am hoping my hubby has it done this weekend. I took a snippet of visuals from my site and printed them on paper. I love little details that pop out later and tie everything together! I can't wait to be able to share my new website...

Jodi Miller of www.jodimillerphotography.com came over this evening to do a mini photo shoot with me. She normally comes once a week and we get together to sew and work on her wedding details and the boys drink fancy homemade beer and hang out in the living room(a library might be needed in the next house!). Anyway, after a discussion a week ago we decided that to keep ourselves extra sharp with the creativity we would try to fit in a little shoot every week on top of dinner and sewing!!! Yes, its a lot, but its soooo much fun!

Here is a little peek at what we did. These are my photos, Jodi's will be much better. I didn't want to give away too much, but here is a taste. I made the gray flower and curtain above(the navy one is a silk flower. And below is an "L" for me:-)...more to come!

here it is!

I am anxiously awaiting Jodi to post the rest of her shoot with these two lovely people(Leah and Travis). I helped with the photostyling, the theme being a "rustic picnic." In the meantime I am stalking www.jodimillerphotographyblog.com! Can't wait:-).

photoshoot

So here is a little teaser from the photo shoot I helped with last Friday. I was going to post my own photos of my inspiration but Jodi's photos are just so much more appealing. They are definitely worth the wait.

Jodi (from Jodi Miller Photography) asked me to help style some shoots and this is sort of the inspiration for the whole theme. Bride Heather totally cooperated with us coming up with an idea and seeing it to completion. We had no idea what style she was going for or what kind of dress she had. It was just a lot of flexibility on her part and a whole lot of nervous excitement on our part. All in all it turned out better than I even thought. However, Jodi and Kurt have just the right touch and a great eye, and all their photos turn out magical! Enjoy for now. I'll post more when Jodi does! In the meantime, check out Jodi's work at www.jodimillerphotography.com!

wedding project

First things first, all of these gorgeous photos were taken by the amazing Jodi Miller and Kurt Baier of www.jodimillerphotography.com. Kurt is my brother and is holding my little Keira below, Jodi is his wonderful fiance. They are the ones I have been collecting china for their wedding. They came over last week to set up a mock table setting.

My kitchen table looked nice in my backyard, its good I mowed a few hours before!

Old books, handmade lace flowers, mason jars, silverware, china, brass candlesticks, burlap...

The lilacs were droopy but smelled fantastic. These flowers are not an accurate representation of what will be used for the wedding, they were free though, and cut from the garden!

I made the napkin rings out of twine and vintage earrings from my mother-in-law, she had great taste! I made the napkins out of a sweet cotton print I had laying around.

I can't wait to do another one of these with the appropriate flowers and on a larger table!
