January 2019 Fashion Friday: Desi + Mat

The first Fashion Friday of 2019 is here! This elopement styled shoot took place up the Northshore of Lake Superior at Gooseberry Falls State Park with the one & only Kellie Rae of Kellie Rae Studio.

S&G’s very own Desiree and her love, Mat, were the perfect couple for this shoot and their own style made an appearance as well {{please note Desi’s henna and her love of mandalas}}.

The bouquet consisting of peonies, garden roses, spray roses, raspberry foliage, tweedia, blule godetia, echinacea, and local dahlias accenting Desiree’s henna and boho style 2-piece dress was all in all a stellar combination.

December 2017 Fashion Friday

Pier B on Lake Superior was the perfect setting for this modern + moody styled shoot. Stepping away from anything traditional, her icy blue gown + hand-dyed ribbon mixed with the dramatic waters of the lake, set up a romantic tale of your dreams. 

The bouquet consisted of roses, amaranthus, muscari, queen anne's lace, along with all varieties of eucalyptus accented perfectly with a multitude of lush, flowing ribbon in a variety of blue tones. The boutonniere coordinating with the bouquet in a simplistic fashion consisted just of muscari, cedar, + eucalyptus. 

Mary from Pure Event Planning + Design coordinated this shoot to absolute perfection. Her keen eye to detail + eclectic design stylings were key points to making this shoot an overall success. Kellie from Kellie Rae Studio captured the whole day with every perfect detail + moment. Her skill behind the lens is protrayed through the gorgeous images she produces.
