First Year Anniversary Shoot Part 1: Mackensey Alexander Photography

Wednesday, July 25th, 2012

On June 3rd, my husband and I celebrated out first year anniversary with a photo shoot in the heart of Savannah, Georgia. Ever since this post, I knew I wanted to do a similar shoot, wedding dress and all. The lovely ladies of Intrigue and 2hands offered the stunning fabric bouquet and boutonniere, and I found Mackensey Alexander Photography, a local Savannah photographer. After scoring a few vintage finds, including my favorites, a pair of 1930s champagne coupes, I was ready for the shoot.

I wanted the pictures to reflect a chic, yet comfortable vibe, almost as if we were playing dress-up in our wedding clothes. I decided to pair my wedding dress with a ruffled cardigan from JCrew and a monogram pendant my husband gifted to me as an anniversary present. For my hubby, an undone collar and dressed-down pants gave a relaxed look. We toted all of the vintage goodies (including many pieces from our own home) into Savannah’s iconic Forsyth Park, laughed, played, and had an altogether great time.

All-in-all, it was a dream come true to work with such wonderful vendors, and recreate the happiness we felt on our wedding day. I would recommend doing a first anniversary shoot to anyone, because it is so much fun to relive all those happy memories.

I couldn’t say thanks enough to the vendors that contributed:

Summertime Sweet Peaches

Monday, July 23rd, 2012

Last week, I stopped at a Farmer’s Market and bought fresh peaches. Since then, I’ve been trying to incorporate into as much as I can! So far I’ve made peach puff pancakes, roasted peaches with brown sugar and cinnamon, and peaches and cream smoothies. Then, I saw this gorgeous summertime post on Style Me Pretty featuring some gorgeous peaches. This sweet fruit is perfect for summer weddings in every way! In the food, cake, and even as favors! I love the idea of peaches in everything!

I love this shade of rich brown. With a hint of red in it, chestnut can definitely work in the summer when paired with lighter colors. It also works as a great color to transition into fall with!
