Ashley of Aster Blooms Photography reached out to me on Instagram one day and I am SO thankful she did! It was an instant friendship. We are both two people who value collaboration and community over competition and even though we have similar styles, we view that as an awesome way to work together and have someone to lean on!

She invited me to a styled shoot in Wilmington, NC at the Neon Fox studio. Let me tell you…this shoot was an absolute DREAM. A dusty blue, romantic dream. It was completely her vision, come to life with the help of some awesome vendors:

• Photography and Styling // Aster Blooms Photography
• Venue // Neon Fox Studio
• Make up and Hair // Rachel Brooke Anderson
• Bridal Gown // Thornburry Brides
• Rentals // Something Borrowed Event Rentals
• Flowers // Occasions Event Design

You can see the behind the scenes I captured in this blog post: Behind The Scenes With Aster Blooms Photography!

I am so grateful that Ashley and Caleb allowed me to shoot alongside them for this session because these are some of the most beautiful wedding photos I’ve taken! Wedding days are beautiful but they can also be stressful so it’s nice to be able to play and take our time to get exactly what we are looking for. It’s good to have creative freedom because it makes us even better on your actual big day!

Here are my favorites from the session…enjoy!!! (And hopefully we’ll be able to re-create this beauty for your wedding day soon!)
