Another wedding full of personalized items! So glad to have these projects come my way and add some custom pieces to such an exciting day. Congratulations to the Hajdukovics!

Wedding Decor: the Grohs

Wedding decorations are always fun, because each couple has different ideas about what touches they want to include at their wedding. For this wedding, there were a bunch of signs to make and a very unique piece shown at the end. I also got to bring out some different skill sets to put all these elements together. Congratulations to the Grohs!

The couple decided to have guests sign a piece of fabric, later to be made into a keepsake quilt, rather than a traditional guest book. I was asked to paint a rose in their wedding colors that would be the centerpiece of the entire quilt, which I was definitely happy to do.Custom Wedding Decor Custom Wedding Decor





Wedding Decor: Andrea & Scott

My favorite part about weddings (besides the photography, of course) is how much they can be personalized to fit the bride and groom’s vision for their big day. I absolutely love small touches that make weddings feel unique, and get really excited when I’m the one who gets to create those pieces. Once the wedding invitation calligraphy was finished, Andrea (the bride) and I started discussing other elements for the wedding. She had some projects in mind for the reception and bridal party gifts, and I was more than happy to work on them for her. My absolute favorite project was the seating chart, designed on an old window!

Calligraphy: Andrea & Scott Wedding Invitations

I always enjoy adding custom touches to projects, adding some personalization for a special event. A lovely bride, Andrea, asked me to do the calligraphy for the wedding invitations she had already ordered. She chose a lovely and unique invitation layout and wanted an elegant touch to finish them off. I mixed up a custom navy blue calligraphy ink to match the wedding colors and the final piece turned out great.

One of my favorite things is to bring a client’s vision to life, to discuss their ideas and then develop designs based only on their ideas. It often will challenge me to produce something that is not my normal style and I really enjoy being stretched creatively. For this bridal shower, the host wanted a theme that is a bit more formal, and simple without being bland. Cream, taupe and rose create an elegant color palette that is enlivened by a geometric design motif. A touch of gold calligraphy ink finishes the set perfectly.

Design: Modern Calligraphy

Calligraphy has always been beautiful to me, but it seemed a little too formal, too aloof. In the past couple years, a new style being called “modern calligraphy” has started to make its way into invitation design. I was intrigued from the very beginning and finally decided to take the plunge and learn the skill and make it my own. I’m now proud to offer this as an additional service. Samples I’ve completed are below, I’m looking forward to tackling more extravagant projects as my skills strengthen in the future.

Always a pleasure and challenge to design for people I know, mixing something from their personality into the invitations. This was no different, and I was so happy with the final set that went into the mail. So excited to welcome a sister-in-law into the family!

Weddings are one of my favorite things to photograph and be a part of, but I also really enjoy designing for them as well. Beyond invitations, there are so many elements that can be added to personalize an event. I’m excited to offer wedding banners in my Etsy shop, in a design that will complement a variety of themes.

Wedding Invitation: Shauna & Steve

This wedding invitation came together beautifully. It is definitely the most involved piece I’ve ever had the pleasure to design – letterpress printing, digital printing, handwritten calligraphy, wax seals and mounted photos (from their engagement session) were all just steps in the process to get to the final mailed piece. The bride and groom (friends of mine) also helped during printing and assembly, since the final piece was so complex.

For the design, the bride and the groom defined the style as “retro romantic” and wanted something that fit their wedding location, The Claremont Resort in Berkeley, CA. We ended up with a design that is clean and elegant, with a bit of art deco influence.

Wedding Wine Label Design: Wendi & Sam

One of the best things about weddings are the little touches that the bride and groom add to personalize their event. Wendi and Sam decided to have wine for their favors; but not just any wine off the shelf, this batch was hand crafted with friends. The hands-on maker part of me loves these kinds of projects, since they add such a great personal touch to the big day.

When Sam asked if I would design a special label for this wine, I naturally said yes. With a little Photoshop magic, I added some little touches as nods to the bride and groom; search around to find their names, the two of them and their wedding date. As a nod to all the wine makers involved, photos of their furry pups were also included.
