Molly beautiful: the veil

The story is this: Molly (a friend of mine) had a fabulous dress that inspired me to put together this inspiration board (you can see her in the dress on the lower right):

I then dragged Leah from SmittenXOXO, and makeup artist Jennifer LaVanaway into the project. Even my mom donated a few of her props–a random set of teacups, linens, and other objects that didn’t make it into the final project, but served as inspiration nonetheless.

Leah sent me hairpieces that went with the feel and colors of Molly’s dress, and Jennifer worked with gold leaf on Molly’s face, to emulate the style of the teacups. Quite lovely!

It does help that Molly is so romantically beautiful, too!

More excerpts from the shoot coming on Wednesday!
