styled shoot

Unlike many wedding blogs, we don’t run a ton of styled shoots — photo shoots that use models instead of real couples — for reasons addressed here. That said, once a month or so, we see a shoot that’s so full of gorgeousness and lovely ideas that we feel compelled to share it. If you’re a photographer who would like to submit your styled shoot, click here.

Pot bouquet as seen on @offbeatbride #cannabis #bouquet #pot

Check out this surprisingly classy cannabis bouquet

We’ve seen non-floral bouquets of all types like papier-mâché animal bouquets, paper roses, brooch bouquets, mini birdcages, and lanterns, and even offbeat florals like kale bouquets. But now is the time where we’re going to start seeing pot bouquets! Cannibis is taking it’s turn in fabulous wedding greenery and this styled shoot is no exception. Let’s spy the marijuana bouquet, boutonniere, and centerpieces all among the Rocky Mountains in Colorado (where it’s legal!).

Romantic Winter styled shoot with a married couple from @offbeatbride

A real elopement turned romantic Winter styled shoot bliss

Real life couple, John and Stephanie, eloped on New Year’s Day and didn’t get any photos taken. Jessica of M&J Photography put out a call for a couple to join her on a killer styled shoot, so it was a win-win to get this gorgeous pair photographed. They had all hoped for a romantic Winter styled shoot with snow, but rain was on the menu which still looked AWESOME. You’ll super dig the pink cake, garden setting, and my fave, the floral gown + black veil combo.

Dark Valentine's Day look as seen on @offbeatbride

A sexy and dark Valentine’s Day look with inspiration from The Crow

This dark Valentine’s Day shoot is glamorously cool with moody reds, greys, and rich purples as the color palette and The Crow as aesthetic inspiration. We love us some pastels, but sometimes you just want to savor the dark side. Add in a ’20s-inspired dress, a few red hearts, a bunch of lush florals, and a wicked helipad venue,
Ventanas in Atlanta, and you’ve got our new favorite dark Valentine’s Day look.
