When I came across this shoot, I thought it was absolutely breathtaking. I love the rustic trend, and I think this stylized shoot submitted by Kristin Garcia of Kristin La Voie Photography exemplifies this feel to its finest. Not only does the rustic chic ambiance come through in all the details, from the outdoor setting among trees and a barn to the lacey gown donned by the bride, but all of the details in this shoot are handmade by small businesses {including several Etsy vendors!}. What amazing talent!

Every aspect of this shoot was thought through to perfection, including the flowers picked, the pink tones, the intimate feel and the way the theme is brought into everything from the charming cake and cake stand to the bride’s garter. I also L.O.V.E. the invitation. So cute, and so original! I also adore the romantic touches of the “love” banner and the personalized cookies. Even the way the shoot is captured in the photographs shows meticulous attention to detail, how each shot is framed and the lighting in the picture.

Thank you so much to Kristen for sharing. An inspiring shoot that makes me want to throw a rustic chic affair!
