Happy Campers: Roxi +Zack

We couldn't be more excited to share the results of our engagement shoot giveaway with photographer, Jill Thomas! To refresh your memory on the contest, revisit our Orange Grove Anniversary shoot, here.

Roxi and Zack were one of the top contenders for our contest and we were amazed by the amount of love they received on our blog and Jill's. When we finally met with them for a design/style consult, we quickly understood the outpouring of love on our blog for them. Roxi and Zack are the most genuine, kind, ADORABLE couple, and they were up for anything! Their engagement shoot concept quickly took shape. The camping-inspired shoot with Jill couldn't have turned out more perfect! I'll let the pictures do most of the talking, as I think they really speak for themselves.

The couple both work in a coffee shop together, and we had to incorporate their love of java joe into the pictures :)

Roxi plays in a local folk band and we love that they brought instruments to play as a nod to their love for music.

Zack is also a talented photographer, you can check out some of his work Here.

The couple actually keeps a kite in the back of their car just in case some wild open field looks too inviting to pass up. They have such a lovely spirit, and these pictures completely capture it.

Jill Thomas really did an amazing job on the photography, as usual! These images of them in the tent might be my favorite. They look so comfortable, snuggled up, and truly in love. For even more pictures, head over to her blog!

Aren't Roxi and Zack just beautiful people?! What's even better is they truly are some of the kindest people we've ever met. Roxi and Zack, it was an absolute honor getting to know you some and we wish you nothing but all of the happiness in the world, you truly deserve it.

Remember this?

We couldn't be more excited to share the results of our engagement shoot design giveaway with photographer, Jill Thomas!

We can't wait to share their engagement pictures...coming later today, so check back soon!!!

Sharing the Love

It has been a very fun and eventful week here at Amorology! Just wanted to share some of the highlights with you that made us smile :)

First, we had so much fun doing our orange grove photoshoot with our friend and photographer Jill Thomas. It was an absolute bonus to have the entire shoot featured on Style Me Pretty this week! We love SMP and it is always fun to see our work on such a mega bridal blog :) Don't forget about our free engagement shoot and styling giveaway! See details of how to enter here.

Heather was also interviewed by Envelopments this week. Be sure to check out their blog to hear her thoughts on our carnival wedding, as well as some fun wedding tips! Thanks to the folks over there for such sweet words about Amorology :)

And last, but certainly not least, Kaite and Jordan's Hampton's-inspired wedding is featured on Ruffled! They were so sweet to include all of the details of our Beside the Seaside theme, from messages in a bottle, to a real rowboat photobooth!

Like I said, we have really been fortunate to work with such great people who all contribute to making these weddings come to life. A special thanks to Style Me Pretty, Envelopments and Ruffled for featuring our work. We know there are oodles and oodles of gorgeous, fun and creative weddings to choose from out there, and it means the world to us to be a part of your blogs :)

first anniversary party

welcome back to the party! More fun photos from our shoot with Jill Thomas Photography! Here is part two...and more reason to celebrate.

inspiration:

this is a vintage inspired shoot. using an old bridal magazine, vintage attire, record player, and even a couple vintage chairs. but we wanted a vintage inspired shoot with an element of beauty and elegance

theme:

we wanted to create a nostalgic feeling, that was reminiscent of each couples wedding day. we also wanted to honor traditions and to remember the moments that began their life together. we imagined our couples beginning a new tradition on their first anniversary and gathering friends together to celebrate.

the couples each re-created photos that reminded them of their actual wedding day.
Micah and Tracy: remembering their rainy Seattle wedding day

Ben and Paige: remembering their destination wedding
Megan and Evan: remembering their rustic ranch style wedding

using a record player, each couple danced to their first song that they danced to on their wedding day. This is one of my personal favorite anniversary traditions. I still love dancing with my husband with each passing year on our special day. It always makes my heart beat a little faster.
