When Victoria reached out to us we immediately fell for her images. Romantic. Vintage. Sexy. From her intimate and beautifully artistic boudoir sessions to capturing emotion on the wedding day, Victoria’s work is two parts high-fashion photography, one part W mag retro photo shoot. Here is some info about Victoria, in her own words…

As a woman and a recent bride, I know all too well how important the smallest, most minute details can be, for each and every wedding is unique in its own way.  There is nothing “cookie cutter” about the most important day in a woman’s life.  Everything has to be flawless: the skin, the hair, the dress, the smile, the music – everything has to be about the unique you!  And of course, the last thing you should be worried about on this day is photography.  I strive to really understand my clients’ needs to make sure my work appears seamless and the results exceed all expectations. I studied photography at the London College of Fashion and honed my skills by working directly with world renowned fashion and beauty photographers.  A little over 2 years ago I started by own business in London doing fashion, beauty, boudoir and wedding photography and have never looked back.  I have shot all over Europe since and have now moved to NYC to embark on a new and exciting adventure. What makes Victoria Janashvili Photography different? “vogue retouching”, boudoir session for the bride and creativity!

We are lucky enough to receive treats from talented vendors who want to share their creative businesses with us. Recently, we were sent a cute little ditty from a company owned by two sisters from MD & PA called Gifts for the Good Life. Loves. Little  heart-shaped hand warmers. Mini hand-painted delish chocolates. A yummy smelling travel-sized candle. We had to share the love. Definitely check out their blog and site.

Totally love the images of one our recent Real Weddings on Style Me Pretty today.  Also, thanks to all of the readers for the outpouring of lovely comments!  *Blushing* Here are the beautiful boards SMP created. Incredible design by Matthew Robbins Design (of course!).  Dog photo*adorable*  The bride*gorgeous*  That dress*divine*  Thanks also to team at Christian Oth, including Christian himself, for the rad images.  Maybe you’ll see some more tomorrow??

Santa Barbara photographer Anthony Elgort recently revamped his wedding site and we definitely recommend that you check it for an abundance of gorgeous images.  Anthony is a fashion photographer, who has entered the wedding arena.  He’s worked under Leibovitz, Avedon, and Demarchelier.  Lucky brides.  Here’s a taste…

Back in September Carrie produced a gorgeous event in Montauk.  Shane Carpenter was the always-talented photographer.  It was a perfect fall weekend and the photos completely capture the fabulous moments of this incredible wedding. Check out the amazing shot of her Vera dress–a personal fave.  Enjoy!

So, it’s no secret that we are huge fans of Mr. Boddington stationery.  Not only do we recommend their fabulous, distinctive custom paper to our clients, but I also use them for my personal social stationery.  In fact, I just placed an order last week for some new stationery–can’t wait to receive!  We were so excited yesterday when we received an email with a link to their new (gorgeous) website.  Full of inspiration, amazing design, and even some adorable Christmas stationery sets.  love. love. love.

Here are some pics of the adorable gift bags that the ever-talented Elana @ Melangerie created for our Bowery wedding client.  As there were guests coming to New York from all over the country for the wedding, the bride wanted to incorporate all-things NYC into the bags: Dean & Deluca, Dylan’s Candy Bar, and of course Central Park.  As you can see, it was done beautifully.  Lastly, the colors and patterns incorporated were taken from her oh-so gorgeous Mr Boddington invitations.  Loves.

So, we are about a week (or so) late on this one!  What happened? Bridal Market Week happened.  Anyway, the Wedding Chicks recently posted one of our summer weddings at Caramoor, shot by the always wonderful and talented Chris Humphreys.  Check it .  Apparently, we were also quoted in the NY Daily News last week… thanks.

Check out these lovelies from South Dakota-based photographer Jeff Sampson.  Some mid-afternoon eye candy. Enjoy.

Excited for next Monday!  Not only for the Flashdance event.  We get to work with Michael at an event on Sunday and then go to his rad party on Monday.  So excited that it’s immediately following the Martha event.  Looking forward to both!  Check it.
