Inside Lovely Bridal Shop

Tim — Wed, 19 May 2010 02:25:50 +0000

Remember the post we did a while back about the wonderful wedding dresses over at Lovely bridal shop? Well this past weekend the designer Elizabeth Dye had her trunk show at the shop and that gave us an excuse to head over there. It seems like every time we visit, Lanie has changed things around and added new beautiful details. Everything always looks really fresh and sweet, from a chalkboard wall to the stacks of apple crates. It’s such an inviting environment where you can shop without pressure and where you can find your dream dress with the perfect sparkling accessories. We wanted Lanie to have beautiful interior shots of her dreamlike wonderland of a store and of course we wanted to share them with you!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Isn’t She LOVELY!

Remember when you were a little girl and you imagined your dream wedding? You thought about who you would ask to be your bridesmaids (every girl in your fifth-grade class of course), who you would be marrying (Leonardo DiCaprio…duh!), what colors and flowers and flavor of cake you wanted…but most importantly you pictured the perfect dream dress. Last weekend we did an amazing shoot for Lovely, a new bridal shop in the West Village, and I was asked to model the beautiful dresses. Thanks to designers like Sarah Seven, Badgley Mischka, and Elizabeth Dye, I was able to live out my childhood fantasy! I went from wearing a fairytale princess ball gown to a gorgeous bohemian sheath dress to a sweet fifties inspired tea-length dress, imagining the wedding that would go with each dress (for some reason Leo was still standing at the end of the aisle!) It was truly an extraordinary experience!

Thanks from the bottom of our hearts go out to Lanie, the beautiful owner of the shop and an incredibly amazing person! She asked Tim to be the photographer and me to be the model and we could not have had a better team for this wonderful shoot. If you are in the New York area you MUST check out her shop! It is located on the sweetest little street in the West Village and you will feel like you are walking into a wonderland filled with whimsical gowns and ethereal hair accessories. I guarantee you won’t ever want to leave.

Happy Holidays!!!

We wanted to wish everyone a Happy Holiday!!! No matter what you celebrate, we hope it is awesome!!! We are loving our first experiences in a city with snow! It snowed for the first time in Manhattan for the season this past weekend, which was also my (Tim) 26th birthday!! It’s really strange walking through a city covered in snow but it is exciting. See you in the new year!!

Sunday Wedding Smilebooth

Tim — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 15:33:31 +0000

When we were at the Sunday Wedding, there was a Smilebooth setup by Our Labor of Love. It was a lot of fun to take pictures in it. We also shot in a traditional photo booth that the Ace Hotel always has. We thought you would enjoy the pics :)

The Sunday Wedding!

Tim — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 03:19:04 +0000

So there is a really cool event that usually happens in Southern California called The Sunday Wedding. Apparently it is a big party for wedding vendors, couples, and whoever else wants to go. Next week it is going to be at the Ace Hotel in Manhattan! We are going to be there to see what it is all about. It should be a lot of fun and a great place to meet other vendors and couples. We would recommend it to anyone getting married in the next couple of years.

Scouting Expedition to Governor’s Island

Tim — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 14:36:40 +0000

This weekend, Mer and I went to Governor’s Island. I have been doing some research on it and really wanted to go. I wanted to wait for it to be overcast before we went, and this Saturday was perfect. It is a free ferry ride, and only takes about 10 minutes. The island used to be used for Army, and then Coastguard, housing, training, ammunition storage, and even defense back in the 18th century. The island was purchased for 2 Axe Heads from the Native Americans!

This place would be SOOOOOOO amazing for a bridal or engagement shoot! We really wanted to do one here, but on our way out, we discovered that it is only open from May to October! So we are going to have to wait until May to do a shoot here. That stinks, but enjoy the pictures!!
