Are you ready for Spring?

I don't know about you but here at Buzy Bee Photography it's been, cold, snow, ice, gray, rain and then snow, and ice all over again.  Not the easiest weather to work in, but snow pictures are a favorite of mine.  So without further adieu  I would share my newest shoot called "Mother Natures waits for Spring".  We took a snow laden ed day, clothing and material I had used for plays and past shoots, and created a sweet vintage shoot that warms the soul.  I hope you enjoy it and instead of waiting on weather to do the right thing, why not embrace it for a one of a kind unique shoot?

These are a few of my favorite things...about Burberry

Have you heard the good news? Buzy Bee Photography has been featured in Tidewater And Tulle !  This a fantastic Wedding Blog that is a must read for all things bridal. So I thought in celebration of our publication I  would write about some of my favorite things from the Burberry shoot or as it has lovingly been referred to as  #ProjectBurberry .   With the tune from the Sound of Musics playlist "Favorite Things" I will commence with the count down.  

Fantastic locations with real cool details.

Our shoot took place at the New Kent Winery. From the recycled bricks to well laid out grounds. The owners of New Kent spared no expense to create this amazing winery and some award winning wines.  If you get a chance, go take a tour!

beautiful roses and swags that have long tails.

Catherine Gustafson with Distinctive Floral Designs created this gorgeous swag and wedding bouquets for our bridesmaids and decor that tied in perfectly with our equestrian Burberry theme.  I loved it!

A cream colored cake decorated with leather and metal links..these are a few of my  favorite things..

Anna Lily with Bella Cakes created a 5 layered masterpiece that tied in the equestrian portion of our Burberry shoot.  Between the leather, metal bit details and colors she used this cake was simple yet elegant.

Little Boleros and plaid vests with leather...

Dutch with RicLamar Clothing  was a true artist creating masterpieces from scratch and with some of my unique finds. I am always amazed at what he comes up with.

Creative graphics used in banners and seating, little note cards and invites that made our themed shoot sing.

Tricia  with Labyrinth Productions brought our shoot together with her creative flair with graphics.  The  addition of plaid to all of her creations was perfect!.

Tables that are laid out with goodies and teas..these are a few of my favorite things.

Amber and her mom of Inspirations Event Planning worked with me to create these talkative tables.  I loved the layout of all the florals, teas and English inspired sweets. The equestrian accents and quirky table runners were a sweet touch as well.

Hair dos that are tosseled  in loose braids and styled hair. Trimmed beards and side burns, crazy curls  that were pinned everywhere.

Kim of Hair by Kim was an artist at creating these updos and tousled looks for our models.  I love how beautifully her hair styles looked with the tailored clothing.  Opposites definitely attract!

Makeup that made our bride glow in the spring!! These are a few of my favorite things!!!

Keren with Makeup by MUA LLC brought a  European Vogue type feel to our shoot. Armed with two assistants Harmony and Niah , they enhanced our models beauty and helped create unity with all the looks.  Well done ladies!

Before I go, I want to thank Kim Scott Pike for her wonderful Equestrian  prop additions along with Caitlyn of Caitlyn Gerres Photography as my second shooter.  All our models (Corey Swann,Taylor Sites, Sierra Stone, Keren Robinson, Sam and Zach Keller) that braved the cold and made it look effortless.  It truly takes a village to make an amazing idea come to life.What once was a scarf and a notebook of scribbles became a colorful quirky beautiful shoot!  I hope you have enjoyed the list of My favorite things and consider using one, some or all of these talented people and venues to help you create some of yours!
