I’ve been making waves with my custom styling mats that I’ve been painting for my own couples that I’ve had a handful of photographer cohorts ask if I can sell them? I’ve been thinking a lot about it lately because of how much I enjoy painting too that I will start taking custom orders in the new year - I just have to develop the whole production side a little more so stay tuned! #stylingmat #flatlaystyle #flatlayphotography #flatlaylove #styledflatlay #invitationsuite #bayareaweddingphotographer #eastbayweddingphotographer #detailoriented #weddingdetails #stylingboard #flatlayboards #vintagewedding #pantone2020 #pantonecoloroftheyear #loveissimple #simplejoie #pdxweddingphotographer #pnwweddingphotographer #fineartweddingphotographer #fineartweddings (at Boulder Ridge Golf Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5-MycwDsxP/?igshid=monmkthaflqq

I seriously obsessed with my new flatlay board I just created! It is silver with hints of grey!!! It’ll work with lays that have blue tones, silver elements, or even accent golds well like it does here! My love just bought me some new paint brushes and I can’t wait to create some new styling boards! I’m in a roll!!!! (And that’s too many exclamation marks but who cares) just so cited to play with my kit. #radlovestories #royalbluewedding #bayareaweddingphotographer #bayareaphotographer #stylingmat #stylekit #flatlaystyle #vintagewedding #fineartphotography #fineartbride #pdxweddingphotographer #portlandweddingphotographer #bluewedding #loveissimple #loveisabigdeal #weddingpro #joiedevivre (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2N6nLXDsXI/?igshid=4hpi3kp56qxe

Can I confess that I have more photographer friends than I have any other friends? You’d think it’s cause I “want to keep my competition closer” but actually we have great honest relationships. I think we’ve found common issues that we’ve undergone and love that we can lean on each other for support. Although we’re not getting pregnant anytime soon, I just know that when/if it happens, I have a handful of photographer friends who I can call “in case” someone needs to cover a wedding for me. Why am I even bringing this up? This is not an easy subject but - I get that question a lot in consultations - “do you have a backup photographer in case something should happen?” Don’t worry, I plan to shoot all my weddings and if I was not able due to planned circumstances like a pregnancy - I’d let you know way ahead of time but under acts outside of my control - you will still be taken care of. Today, I’m honored to share that I’m heading out to assist as a primary photographer because a friend is in a similar situation. Things happen. 📷 Workshop: @gotogetherworkshop Hosts: @heykrizel @linaryann Venue: @historicsevensycamores Styling: @erikaamaliaevents Florals: @thefloraclub Stationary: @trademark_inspired Styling Mat/ Canvas: @jrd_artshop #flatlay #weddingflatlay #stylingmat #invitationsuite #loveissimple #bayareaweddingphotographer #simplejoie #sfwedding #mayshowers #sfengagementphotographer #vintagetray #sunolweddingphotographer (at Sunol, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxki8e8DC73/?igshid=y65ibu5qqtnf
