Back to Black

Scratching your head about Bridesmaids dresses that are versatile, work well with any color palette, will make bouquets really stand out, are easy to mix and match styles AND that your friends can wear again? It doesn't get any better than black.

Jubilee Portraits : Introducing Nathan

Meet Nathan. He's about 4 weeks old now, around 3 weeks when we took these photographs.
Everything is so fresh, so new and so full of possibility.

Jubilee Inspirations : Casual Orange & Warm Neutrals

Everything about this inspiration board is "wrong." A casual cotton shirtdress as a bridesmaids dress? I say, hell yes, and why not? And we've got polka dots, stripes, damasks and floral patterns merging together, which might seem like a visual cacophony, but actually is quite complimentary and subtle. Another wrong that feels so right, I've put gold, cool taupe and warm greys together. There's something so chic about pairing opposite neutrals and when you introduce a pop of color like citrusy orange, you really CAN'T go wrong!

Jubilee Inspirations : Reddy Made

This board is all about celebrating Summer. If you are looking for a fun, bright & budget friendly fete for your big day, why not have a picnic or a cookout? Incorporate quirky details, have friends help create decor from vintage fabric or paper found at a thrift store, make a DIY bouquet from grocery store flowers and mason jars, reserve space at your local park and prettify picnic tables while everyone bbq's or plays games.

Haute Boudoir : Ro

Ro is one of those girls who the instant we spoke on the phone, I knew we would become friends. Neither of us had a choice in the matter, we just meshed. When you add beauty wunderkind Kristen Lober to the mix, a swanky New York City hotel, and lots of laughter & even more awesome lingerie, you get the following boudoir shoot.

Jubilee Inspirations : Seashell & Lace

I cannot think of anything more elegant, timeless or as lovely as a wedding with a beach theme in gorgeous shades of Shimmering Pearl accented with soft vintage lace.

Nothing says August like Watermelon! A cool and refreshing use soft colors, with Black spots or stripes thrown in as a fun and unexpected accent!

Jubilee Weddings : Wes & Jenn 7.3.2010

Wes and Jenn were married on 4th of July Weekend at Belmont Estate just south of Baltimore, Maryland. The amazing team of Sky Blue Events, with Jennifer Grove leading the way, designed a very elegant, laid back wedding for Wes, a scientist, and Jennifer, a teacher, and their closest friends and family.

Jenn is very close with her family, especially her Grandmother,who gave Jenn her vintage Pearls as a wedding present.

We took a little detour towards the pool to cool off from the sweltering summer heat, and of course, snap a few photos!

The theme of Wes and Jenn's wedding, if their had to be one, would be laughter. Everyone laughed and smiled the entire time, from being blissfully happy to being downright silly, laughter could be heard the entire night!
