We’re here for these bridesmaids Vanity Fair cover vibes 📸
She’s a beaut 🇺🇸 happy 4th everyone!
Bada Boom💥 Bada Bing 🍒
Welcome July 🇺🇸 We are excited for all the summer fun and beautiful weddings and parties this month holds for us, so we’re raising a glass to our sweet couples tying the knot!
Guys the sun is shining and the temperatures are perfect. Feeling so grateful for a perfect summer day ☀️ Lauren’s hand painted wedding invitations were full of spring colors to match her inspiration. For the reception, we peppered in brighter, warmer colors to reflect the change in season from spring to summer. Good thing too, because it was a 🔥 one (hence the fan!) And of course, a close up of their custom seed packet es**rt cards, with seeds from their actual wedding/day florist!
In my dreams, I’m in my Nancy Meyers / bon vivant summer era living my best life at this summer shoot we styled. In reality, I am attached to my phone and laptop nonstop right now trying be creative about fun places to WFH (but it’s ok because ) 🍓 🍾
Neo-classical garden vibes for Colette + Michael’s seating chart at . This Roman clay and plastered wall had impressions from dried flowers to reminisce the dried flowers on their invitation from and the beautifully tucked satin felt both trendy and timeliness. Morgan from finished it with a stunning garden installation… and voila 🌿
Composed: Air 🌬️ one year ago. Each part of this series has felt a little like translating an Alphonse Mucha painting into real life, but with the added goal of highlighting how it could be used for wedding inspiration. Thanks for stepping in as our model and floating through this airy wonderland.
With earth, wind and water behind us: who is excited for composed: fire? 🔥

It’s a *little* toasty out there today 💥 always a great reminder that if you’re getting married in the Midwest, the weather will do what 👏🏻 it 👏🏻 wants 👏🏻 (it was in the 90s on my wedding day, in October!) No one can control the weather, but If your guests are uncomfortable they’ll remember the way the felt, and even the smallest details can make a difference: shade, h20, and fans. Of course, you DO need to plan for weather, but you don’t have to sacrifice style, so look at it as a way to bring in attractive details that double as small comforts 🌿
Colette & Michael 🌿 was there ever so lovely and sweet a couple with perfect wedding day style to match? Am I going to find a way to post every photo of their gorgeous wedding day from ? Hold me back.
Happy Friday friends- hope the weekend holds lots of love and beauty for you.

9 years ago right about now, I snapped this photo of Lorie and Jared on their way out of the church on my iPhone 4.

I loved their day, full of bright colors and details I had painstakingly hand painted. More importantly, I love the two of them dearly still ❤️ 9 years…
Yesterday marked one year of this beautiful couple’s lifelong commitment ❤️ The kindest, most beautiful souls inside and out- celebrating them is easy, narrowing down their photos was not! Cheers to a year, Kelsey and Nate!!
Schools are out, pools are open! 💦 what better time to share images from from our “composed: water” workshop.
This workshop series is designed to give photographers a safe place to play and learn new techniques to carry over into wedding or product photography alike, and water was perhaps the most fun and most relatable. Ever have to capture a wedding day that was dark and rainy? It’s great to have practice so you can confidently and creatively work with the reality of your surroundings without being at the expense of the client.
Also, personally it is fun for me to design with creative freedom to play and to put intention in every detail. I could go on an on about each creative decision and how the vendors really made it it come to life, but I think these images speak for themselves!
ps: I could share a portfolio of each participants unique and beautiful way of capturing what we put before them (and I still may 🥹)

I love a photo with narrative. It’s a beautiful gift to see these moments on film, let alone to often be privy to these actual moments on wedding days. So simple, so monumental.

PS- take me back to the Catskills.
Hire a planner. Because we don’t start fires, we put them out!
An all in good fun spoof of the “planner lighting a candle” headshot brought to you by “composed:water” and this genius little gadget we used to make so many fun effects.
Thanks to my friends and for snapping me in my true form: down to business with a side of silly. Have a happy weekend, everyone! And seriously… hire a planner.
Heading into our first wedding weekend of 2024 and I am very much in my feels. I’ll always love what a wedding means- the joining of two lives forever, all that came before and all that comes after. I’m so grateful to be a part of that ❤️
For May: flowers! We’re “bringing in the may” with these gorgeous 1950’s inspired florals by and the prettiest multicolored stationery from 🌸 captured by
For a different kind of friday introduction, I thought I’d tell you about this very special woman you see pictured here with me, probably aged 3 or 4, and how she had a huge influence on my life and who I am as a creative. A few years ago I had an assignment to write a “heart story” for Auburn & Ivory and I chose to write about my neighbor, Betty Young. She recently passed away, and in remembrance of her I decided to publish that story to my blog. So, if you’d like to know more about this incredible woman and the way she impacted my life and the way we approach what we do at Auburn & Ivory, you can find it on our website or use the link in our bio. ❤️
*Anticipating Cocktail Hour* 🥂
I always get excited for anniversary posts and this is no exception. Cheers to one year, Natalie and Connor! Looking back to a joyful, reverent day, and celebrating looking forward to your beautiful future together! 🌿
Even though planning from out of state, I loved my time working with Ruthie and Carlton. They were so warm and humble and welcoming, and I loved the vision they shared for their wedding day, aesthetically and beyond. There were so many thoughtful elements, but each was showstopping as well, starting with this *gorgeous* floral installation for their ceremony in Edwards Court, crafted by and designed by

“Nature is pleased with simplicity” 🌿 We spent time at the Butterfly House in St. Louis and it had me remembering this beautiful, nature inspired wedding from a few years back. No detail was over the top, but the antique botanical prints, dried floral specimens for a seating chart, and heavenly scented beeswax candles gave each guest’s five senses something to delight in, much like nature itself.
Came the Spring, with all her splendor 🌿

The smallest details (miniature even) can make a huge impact. We wanted to illuminate Natalie + Fritz signature drinks (inspired by their favorite spot, ) after the lights went down 🍸 what better way to do so than with these perfect miniature lamps, meant for a dollhouse. We may have to make this a staple going forward… add in some gorgeous statement florals and the bar looked it’s best all night long.
After a few days sick and single parenting until tomorrow night , I knew something that would truly cheer me up- Megan and Josh. Just look at them 🥹 I’ll never be over it.
Who needs Jack & Jackie when you have Fritz and Natalie 🎀 these two set the tone for their wedding with their own personal flare for fashion and their undeniable chemistry with each other. Forever grateful for them and this day and the team that helped it come together.
Love Letters 💌 today is St. Valentines’s Day, a day for showing our love and devotion to the people who matter most. In a way, a wedding invitation feels a lot like a love letter. Come and join us in celebration as we seal our hearts together, til death do us part.
For Ruthie and Carlton, we worked with to include Ruthie’s Grandmother’s original artworks. We found ways to incorporate it throughout the day as an act of love and admiration, and I know it’s a detail they will forever cherish. Love on, friends. ❤️
“It’s just ladies celebratin’ ladies. Like Lilith fair, minus the angst. Plus waffles.” 🧇 Hope today finds you sending and receiving ridiculous, Leslie Knope style compliments with your best girlfriends. Happy Galentines Day ❤️
