I can’t say enough wonderful things about Heather Gilson’s photography, or about the spirit and joy that I see in the photos from Sarah and Josh’s Bainbridge Island wedding.

As Sarah describes in her wedding graduate post on A Practical Wedding, Sarah and Josh’s wedding began with quite a snag, as two of the ferries that run across Puget Sound from Seattle to Bainbridge Island broke down!  But Sarah didn’t let it faze her – she simply let it go and enjoyed her wedding day.

I absolutely adore this fun and unique trash the dress session. Jeremy Lawson visited Rebecca and Scott’s home in Fort Lauderdale for a pillow fight!

I returned from Vegas to a bit of warmth in Chicago and it’s put some pep in my step.  Here’s some spring-time inspiration to kick off your weekend!

Leah’s wedding made me fall in love all over again with gorgeous statement necklaces on a bride.  How gorgeous are these crocheted gold and silver necklaces from etsy seller Galit?  I think they are the perfect mix of modern and sophisticated.

Are you wearing a necklace with your bridal ensemble?

This week I am in Las Vegas at the fabulous WPPI convention – many of the talented wedding photographers I feature on the blog are here as well, including someone whose work really resonates with me, Elizabeth Messina.

While obviously her panel class was geared towards photographers, while hearing Elizabeth talk about her art and showcase her work my thoughts naturally turned towards EAD and weddings.

I love Elizabeth’s work because she brings her own perspective to each photograph.  They are completely and innately her, while also being fully focused on the subject of the photo.  When I see a wedding that I love, it’s for the same reason – a unique perspective.

What are you doing to make your wedding your own?  What voice are you bringing to your event?  Are you truly representing your love and your relationship?
