Happy Halloween
We are often asked to participate in collaborative wedding photo shoots. Creepy halloween shoots? Notsomuch It was great fun to select pieces for this theme and eye-opening to see just how versatile these well-designed styles are! Big thanks to totally talented photographer Meredith Washburn and perfectly poised model Morgan Dunn for including us!
Kudos to @heatherstonemakeup (makeup), @adorebridal (gown), and Salon Renaissance (hair) for bringing it!

But evil things, in robes of sorrow, Assailed the monarch’s high estate; (Ah, let us mourn!—for never morrow Shall dawn upon him, desolate!) And round about his home the glory That blushed and bloomed Is but a dim-remembered story Of the old time entombed.
