The Concept

Readers of Style Me Pretty, a fantastic wedding blog that receives over 3 million views a month, were given the opportunity to create their own wedding inspiration boards for the chance to be chosen for a photo shoot that would bring their inspiration board to life.

For us, Inspiration to Reality was amazing timing because we had been discussing ideas for our next project on the same day that Abby from Style Me Pretty had asked Little Black Book members about participating.

Now that Style Me Pretty has had the chance to show off the shoot I wanted to feature it on my blog and go into a little more detail about the shoot and all of the incredibly creative people that made it happen.

The Inspiration

A Style Me Pretty reader from South Africa created a board titled “This Is Fashion” and we were instantly in love with it and the possibilities it offered to us for the shoot. We could incorporate the fashion and glamorous elements that we love to see in weddings as well as bringing a winter theme — with snow in Florida — to the concept.

The Creative Team

Since we had so much fun on the Bridal Fashion Shoot a few months back I thought it would be great to get the team back together to see if we could take what we learned during our previous experience and have even more success than our previous collaboration.
