15+ Tips for Planning Your Wedding with Emily-May Photography

15+ Tips for Planning Your Wedding with Emily-May Photography

It’s Engagement season! Chances are if you’re here you are recently engaged and you aren’t sure where to start. I had my past brides, clients and friends on Instagram create this JUST FOR YOU! I’m also including my own tips for successful relationships with your chosen vendors, how to find them and a few key tips for you on your Wedding day.

Hallmark Inspired Christmas Photoshoot with Emily-May Photography in Kamloops, BC

This beautiful shoot, featured yesterday among other amazing creatives on Rocky Mountain Bride was such a dream! I am so excited to be able to share the photos with all of you.

Every year for the last 4 years I’ve run Christmas Mini sessions in November. Each year they’ve gotten bigger and bigger but by the end I am spent creatively. To combat that I brought my favourite vendors together to create our own piece of holiday magic! I think it is so important to create with your fellow vendors, when I work on styled shoots I love when we all bring something to the table and feed off each other’s energy. The models are a real life couple who just got their first puppy (Leo) together so I knew I had to include him in the shoot. The wardrobe was created with pieces in my client closet – we wanted to showcase a variety of styles from your rock and roll bride outfitted in velvet and leather, your boho sweetheart bride wearing lace & the statement piece, the non-traditional mauve tulle skirt bride. Fern and Frond always creates the most perfect bouquets – a lot of the colour palette we pulled from what she made for this shoot. So grateful as we planned this in just a week! Ginger Turley Artistry is my go to makeup artist in Kamloops – this natural glam look she created for Emily was one of my favourites to date. Amy from The Blondes Brunette brought us a romantic half updo that still allowed for movement. The rustic arch from Event Rentals Kamloops was perfect – I’m so grateful they brought it in for me! Everything came together just as I had hoped and I’m always so excited for our next collaboration together.

In Studio Branding Session with Ginger Turley Artistry x BeautyCounter

I’m not here to sell you anything, but I’ve been using a few of these products for the last little while and they are awesome. I bought the Flawless in 5 set and it has made my every day routine so much easier. Their new formula concealer is AMAZING. And I know nothing about makeup (which is why I have Ginger!) But I do know that as I’m getting older I’m thinking more and more about taking care of myself, my body and my mind.

I was so excited when Ginger asked me to take some photos in her studio with the new holiday line! The products are picture perfect (and so is Ginger!)
