It's so lovely when photographers contact me and want to put a shoot together especially for the magazine, which is what happened when Chris and Kristen Photography got in touch. Together with an amazing crew of vendors such as Gather Events, The Vine's Leaf, Claire Pettibone, Copper Willow Paper Studio who designed a gorgeous stationery suite, they spent a day at Willowbrook Apple Farm creating all this pretty.

With summer coming to a close, we find ourselves longing for the warm tones and abundance of the fall harvest. Delicious seasonal fruits, dried wheat, warm copper tones, farmhouse textures and a stunning bride and groom inspired us to create a styled scene to get us in the mood for the bountiful beauty of autumn.

The invitation paper suite incorporated real apple seeds that were hand-pressed into luxurious thick and pulpy paper and the entire package serves as a gift complete with cinnamon sticks.�
