All you couples in love out there, we're looking for ya! We'd love to have you model for us as bride + groom for an editorial styled shoot this June. Must be available on a weekday (Tuesday or Wednesday preferred) for the entire day and willing to travel to western New Jersey - we can help out with transportation.
Not married yet? No problem! Married but maybe didn't love your wedding photos? You get a do-over! Married and love your wedding photos but also love being in front of the camera and want to play dress up? Sweet!
Now that you're interested, send over a recent photo of yourselves to [email protected] and we'll go from there.
Feel free to tag and share with friends!

All those photoshoots in the very beginning of my life here could have gone soooo differently had I known this. That being said, great things happen when you wander :)

Sure, you could just ask for directions. But where's the fun in that?

Jersey City will always hold a special place in my heart, despite the fact that I never truly lived there :) Pretty cool to see it featured in November's issue of Good Housekeeping magazine! Especially because it includes one of my all-time favorite places to shop, Kanibal & Co., which has the best shop proprietor around!!! If you're ever there, it's a definite must-see ;)

The shop is thrilled to be included in the November issue of Goodhousekeeping magazine!
