This shoot all started from a vintage wedding dress I found in Santa Barbara at the Yellowstone Clothing Boutique.
I was completely inspired by this dress and I had to have a shoot with it!
I gathered my gals from the Long Beach Wedding Collective and asked if they would be interested in contributing in a styled shoot coming from the inspiration of this vintage late 60's early 70's dress! Well they were in and we came up with the idea of making this authentic and Eco-Friendly!
Our Styled Shoot is titled Eco~Hippy Chic. All products were reused, authentic 60-70's decor. Most of our decor was borrowed from family members, stuff we already had and some (very little- the gown and the groom's shirt) was purchased through vintage boutiques. All of collaborators are from Long Beach, Ca and are apart of the Long Beach Wedding Collective. Our mission was to create a 70's inspired theme with everything as a reused item. Even some of our flowers were in a sense reused. We had originally scheduled to shoot at the Nature Preserve "Greenbelt" in LongBeach. Only days before our shoot we noticed they were leveling it out. It was so sad to see a blanket of wild flowers along a natural walk way in Long beach to be taken away. So our florist Megan Gray of Honey and Poppies gathered some of the wildly grown flowers indigenous to California to become apart of our floral arrangements. Each collaborator donated items of their own to the shoot. It was amazing to see how each of us already had decor from this genre and how it complimented the scene and created authenticity to the theme.
I have to thank ALL the gals from the Long Beach Wedding Collective for being apart of this and contributing in so many ways by sharing your expertise, lending props & helping bring an idea to fruition. I also want to thank those who didn't get credit via the publication... our assistants! Abbi Kidwell who at the time was Candice Maloney's assistant from De-Lovely Events really had a great hand in creating this vision we came up with. Shanda Hudson was my 2nd shooter; she captured some amazing sideline shots one being a full spread feature!
Special thanks to Ma n Pa's Market for allowing us to completely restyle their courtyard.
