Recently, I had the pleasure of collaborating with some amazing ladies on a styled shoot that I had been dreaming up for months! The concept for this shoot originated from an episode of Parks & Recreation when Leslie {Amy Poehler} hosts a Galentine’s Day party for her girlfriends to celebrate love + friendship, and it was further inspired by the other loves of my life, my best friends… My cousin, a talented artist and up-and-coming wedding planner brought this bohemian + glamour vision to life with the bright color palette and decorative details. With The Green Building in Brooklyn, NY as our venue, we kept everything as local as possible by working with Denise Fasanello Flowers and Patina Rentals {both based in Brooklyn}, Fallon Fitzpatrick Hair Stylist, Dramatizon Makeup Design, and our beautiful models {all based in Manhattan}. Denise also came up with the idea of giving the girls a DIY flower crown table where we also “tatted them up” with gold friendship bracelets! We had a blast prepping for this and on shoot day ~ It was filled with so much love and girliness! Although it is hard to choose, I think my most favorite detail is the giant blackboard quoting Brooklyn’s most “notorious” rapper, All the ladies in the place with style and grace {hand-lettered by my cousin}. We’re also so excited to see these images featured on The Sweetest Occasion who described it as the perfect inspiration for gathering your besties to celebrate this Valentine’s Day, and I couldn’t agree more!
