Oh say can you see…….. the fun and beauty you can have with a red, white, and blue theme. This idea was something that popped in to my head a while back and I was so happy that we were able to pull it off in such a short time. Nothing screams summer then the colors of the flag and all of the fun that summer brings. We had a wonderful time putting this together quickly and as with any shoot with the fabulous Tia there is always an adventure. Our favorite this time was the naked guy sleeping below the deck of the boat that we photographed on. I think he may of forgotten we were coming but it sure made for a very interesting afternoon. He was so sound asleep he didn’t even know we were there until we were already packing up. The best part is he said ” I thought you guys were gonna use the boat?” and I replied “we just finished!” But good ole Tia couldn’t resist “yelling nice butt!”. Jeff (the naked guy) just shoot his head and laughed.
A special thank you to Rachel at Sweet Tooth Confections for the sweets and whimsical cake and to the girls at RBK Creations for creating such fun accessories at a drop of a hat. Your button bouquet, boutonniere, shoe clips, and windmills just worked perfectly in to the look we wanted and enhanced it greatly! Last a special shout out to JE Models in San Francisco and Cast Images Talent Agency in Sacramento for helping us find beautiful talent for this last minute inspiration.
Last we were so thankful to Amanda at Ruffled Blog for hosting this shoot of love we created. To see more please check out her wonderful blog on wedding inspiration.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Independence Day.
