She's from Norhtern Ohio and just a few seconds of scrolling through her work and you'll see why. She's coming to Key West with us and will be traveling up to Detroit in December to take our engagement picutres. I have loved photography since I was little. I could just flip throught the pages of magazines and be awed, not by the fashion (that came later) but by how people could capture images. FI's grandfather was a photographer. I've seen some of his work, it's very good. To me, photography is one of the most important vendors [i]especially[/i] for a destination wedding- there are so many people who won't be there to celebrate with you, so all you'll have are the photos and videos you bring back. Leah is a former DW Knottie and knows exactly how to capture the moments. If you take a look at her site, click on the 'Intimates' section. Typically known as 'boudoir' photography, she is a nationally known photographer and travels all over the country photographing women in their most intimate settings. I think it's amazing and definetely plan on doing a session of my own. Adam even agreed to do a couples shoot. Also, we have a hair/makeup stylist in Key West. Marie-Pierre is one of the best stylists on the island.]]> Photography done right! - Awesome TTD session http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/32606 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/32606 Tue, 04 Nov 2008 11:57:00 PST blog, Matt Adcock. This is the picture that made click on his blog in the first place. Adam and I want to do a couples intimates and a couples TTD. I thought this shot would be amazing to replicate!
Seriously!!! How great is that shot? These are the other pictures from the shoot.

I went to my local scrabooking mega-awesome store, Archivers, and I finally found a lime slice die cut (it's actually supposed to be watermelon slice but I dont' care :) and had to use it somewhere... so on the STD it goes. I'm not sure if I want to stamp the info on there, or have it in calligraphy but it'll be in silver ink. It looks more yellow than lime, but it's actually called 'hot lime' so it's not going to be so bright. We're going to have DVD STDs as well, and going to highlight moments of me and Adam and then Key West and do a highlight of the places where the events will be. Still haven't decided what song to set it to, but we'll see. I think 'Could you be loved?' by Bob Marley... cause he's a fav of mine and to give it a beach-y feel b/c nothing else will really be to 'beach-like' even though it's on the beach. If that makes sense.]]> Damask-aholic - I'm not seeking treatment. http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/23350 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/23350 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 08:48:00 PST The Dress!!! - Casablanca 1923 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/23347 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/23347 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 08:26:00 PST It's gorgeous and so romantic for a sunset beach ceremony in Key West! I'm just so thrilled I had to share. I think I'm going to do a french bustle with the train. I never saw myself in a lace gown but it made my heart pitter patter. It's sweetheart neckline is just enough. And the silk adds just the right amount of softness. The bling will come from accessories. It's new from the Fall 08 line. I'm need to find a lace bolero too. But I would want the lace to match at least a little bit.]]> Crystal Tree - Bringing some bling to Key West http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/22248 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/22248 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 07:54:00 PST I know it's fairly easy to figure out, but I found this video online with good instructions: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6123394511925266753 We're getting some of these hanging chrystals Here And we're also getting some of the crystals in the floral dept at Michaels :) I figure we'll NOT do the manzita branches but something I can find at Michaels b/c the shipping on those things are ridiculous. Spray the branches silver then do a damask wrap around the pot and then hang the crystals.]]> Bird Cage Veils http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/21195 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/21195 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 08:50:00 PST ]]> Matching Tattoos - We're doing it! http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/20648 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/20648 Wed, 13 Aug 2008 11:10:00 PST Adam likes this one: We have tattoos already. He has a tribal and I have 3- a celtic cross on my lower back, a courage kanji symbol on my right foot, and 4 shooting stars on my left foot. I came up with the idea and he absolutely loves it. Squeee! We'll get it about a month before the wedding. We would never get each other's names... (Johnny Depp has "wino forever" on his arm... I don't think so) but would like to have another reminder with us always (besides our rings).]]> Fleur de Lis Items - Fleur and Damask together?

It started with a damask icon and then for color I added the green circles and placed them to look like they were coming out of the flourish. We'll have them printed on white cardstock and with a black metallic pocketfold. Our family friend owns a print shop so we're getting them printed for free for our gift! I'll take free printing any day over a fondue set ;Þ The panel cards will be as shown. I've designed it so that the damask flourish on the right lines up perfectly and that each layered card is cut at just the right spot.]]> Monogram Madness - Which to choose?! http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18512 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18512 Tue, 29 Jul 2008 08:01:00 PST The New Inspiration Boards - Updated for the supah dupah new wedding http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18385 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18385 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 15:13:00 PST Save The Dates part 2 - Damask Divas Do It Better! http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18382 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18382 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 15:05:00 PST Damask & Emerald Green It Is!! - No longer a Tiffany Blue Bride http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18381 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/18381 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 15:01:00 PST Wedding Dress - Found my hair style! http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/16843 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/16843 Tue, 15 Jul 2008 08:05:00 PST ]]> ~E-Party Menus~ - For the Engagement Party http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/16313 http://www.weddingbycolor.com/sexylittlebride/milestones/16313 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 13:36:00 PST many years so she is helping as well.
