a downtown Raleigh *styled shoot*
Need engagement photo ideas? I feel like sometimes people don’t realize how DOPE their images can really be. Something you may not know is that I absolutely LOVE assisting with creative direction + vision with my couples. Back in 2022 I ordered this beautiful dress from ASOS with hopes to plan an amazing styled shoot + update my portfolio with some fire images. Well, that idea was put on pause for 2 years (life be life’ing) then finally I took initiative to make things pop.
I reached out to one of my favorite models, Jasmine because 1) I knew the dress was her size and 2) because she always always always slays! I also reached out to a local MUA from my hometown to complete the look. When putting together shoots I always reach out to vendors that I want YOU guys to book. Jasmine also knew a hairstylist who assisted with her amazing pearl enhanced updo.
Here’s the mood board that I sent to give my vendor friends an idea of my vision:
The bottom left block were the items I already had at hand, and the remaining photos are Pinterest inspiration!
Shot in Downtown Raleigh, this set is giving CLEAN, Parisian, editorial, high fashion LOVE.

So many thanks to the amazing vendor team!
