HELLO GORGEOUS!

Suit and Tie | Groomsmen Details and Looks

Mr. & Mrs. Carlson | A Warren Pa Country Club Wedding

This blog post will probably be my absolute favorite ever.  I haven’t been shy at in my social media about how much this wedding meant to me, and for good reason! My two best friends married each other! Corey and Lisa said ‘I Do” on Friday in warren Pennsylvania at the beautiful Conewango Valley Country Club and Golf Course and it was magical.  I have to give it to these guys, their day was planned out to the very last detail, and I was in heaven.  Lisa made sure that she was ready for the most beautiful day of her life, and she was radiant.  I can’t promise that I won’t get through this post without crying (again) but here goes nothing!

What’s in My Wedding Day Styling Kit? | SZP Education

Happy Monday! I am coming at you bright and early with some super awesome education today.  I wanted to share a bit of behind the scenes work with you, and especially for my brides I hope this puts you at ease when you’re thinking about those super beautiful detail shots that you see all over Instagram and Pinterest.  I always bring my style kit to a wedding. Always, always, always. Sometimes I get to a wedding and start looking around the getting ready room and I find amazing things, so I don’t even end up needing my kit.  However, sometimes things are limited and in I swoop with my superhero box to save the day! So the question is: what do I keep in my styling kit?

All About Details | Wedding FAQ’s

Hey Wednesday! Halfway 😉 We’re doing good this week right? Today I want to share some information with all of my brides out there- all about the details of your wedding day! I know wedding planning can be scary and overwhelming, but if you’re an SZP bride know that I will be there for you every step of the way.  I love bridal details- love them.  I spend a good hour-hour and half of the wedding day shooting just the details.  I know that seems like a lot but friends it is not! As a photographer, shooting the tiniest details of your special day is something that you will look back on and be so happy about.  It’ll get me ready for your day by really getting me into the feel of your wedding.  I love getting creative with things and your details is one of the areas that I can really do that.
