This shoot is very near and dear to my heart. For so long I’ve longed to shoot a couple in a lavender field. I’ve had dreams of how I specifically wanted it to look, and after much time and thought, I decided to make that dream a reality. If you know me at all you know that I have a serious love for lavender, and all things herbal for that matter. (In my candles, in my perfume, in my tea, in my food and in my floral arrangements! I can’t get enough!) I love the romance and beauty in the scent of lavender, it’s pale purple hues and the way it looks with the sunlight peeking through it’s buds. I love photographs with true, genuine, natural emotion. So the inspiration for this shoot was to create a scene that embodies a feel of natural, organic romance. Natural and organic in style, a little bit rustic. And romantic in inspiration, in the couple we handpicked, in the decor, in the atmosphere. I handpicked the vendors and chose the people I knew would be a perfect fit for this little dream of mine. And I couldn’t be more pleased, this shoot could not have happened without each and every one of their efforts. (vendor listing at the bottom of the page)
