Published! 70’s Rock & Roll Styled Shoot

Earlier this year, we collaborated with some amazing local vendors for a styled shoot at Empire, a rockin’ concert venue in Springfield, Virginia with one of the most stylish bars we’ve ever seen: The Alchemy Room. Our models Jesse and Rebecca looked smashing, and lit up the scene with their fantastic chemistry! (Pun!)

The shoot was featured in not just one, but two online publications! Back in August, we were complimented by a feature in The Frosted Petticoat, a blog from the artsy candy company of the same name who said that the team “shook up tradition,” and thought “outside the box.”

More recently, we were once again honored by a phenomenal write-up in The Bitchless Bride, a feisty-fearless wedding planner who gives frank advice about the wedding industry. From a planner who has been in the game for two decades and literally seen it all, we were flattered that she called our shoot “an inspirational buffet of awesomeness,” “S.E.X.Y.,” and said “These photographs are not only so well executed, but they seem to glow…”

The highest compliment from her? “These colors! The crispness of the photographs! The imagination!! I mean… I’m gonna start crying it’s so good…”

Is it mean that we love making people cry?

But seriously, we had SO MUCH FUN with this shoot! A GI-HUGE-IC thanks to all the incredible vendors:
