Fairytale

Tender in Tulle

I’m so excited to announce The Studio Series, created in collaboration with Rebecca Isenhart Photography. This was my first time shooting in a studio and I’m completely converted. I always felt that shooting outdoors and on location allowed for more of a story. But Rebecca worked with me to create a narrative and a sense of…Read More

I really liked the idea of a girly outfit like this being contrasted by a darker, almost ominous background.
