Its not often that I get out of my comfort zone and get in front of the camera, especially featuring my own floral designs. But to commemorate 10 years in the business as well as 10 years of being married to my wonderful husband; who is my rock and I could not do what I do with out his full support and encouragement. We decided to do a photo shoot with one of my favorite photographers Jenn from Spotted Stills Photography.
This was a perfect way to celebrate our marriage and floral design together in one. We are lucky to live right down the road from this nature park, a perfect spot for a mini photo shoot. This being Oregon, it started to sprinkle during our shoot; but we did not let the rain stop us.
A huge shout out to Janelle from The Prettiest You/Contoured Salon for fitting me in at the last minute for make up. Its always a pleasure to work with you.
I loved my dress by LC Lauren Conrad for Kohls, it was very stylish and comfy.
My bouquet and floral crown featured some of my favorite blooms in mauve, blush pink, peach and gray tones. Blushing Bride Protea, Astrantia, Pieris, Spray Roses, Carnations and Dusty Miller from my own yard.
Thank you Spotted Stills Photography for the fabulous photos and here's to another 10 years!
I absolutely love creating flowers for the hair. Fresh floral combs are especially exciting to design since they are usually worn by the Bride herself.
This garden style floral comb features ranunculus, jasmine vine, privet berry, string of pearls, eucalyptus, eryngium and gray brunia berries.
Thank you Erica Ann Photography for capturing this stunning piece and all its intricate details.

I can't say no when one of my favorite photographers asks me to collaborate on a photo shoot.
This was one of my all time favorite shoots. I got the full creative freedom to design and style all the floral and decor elements.
The overall look and feel was rustic -elegance with a large emphasis on garden style.
Enjoy!

I was honored when Becky contacted me with a request to design a custom floral hair comb for her to wear during her engagement shoot with Natalie Puls Photography
The floral comb was designed with lots of fun textural floral elements including tillandsia {aka air plants}, succulents and brunia berries.
The photo shoot took place at Smith Rock in Terrebonne, Oregon which is a sentimental location for the couple.
The last image was taken by me, to show the close up details of this floral piece.
Here is what Becky had to say about her experience:
"Lora provided a gorgeous custom air plants floral comb. I sent her an inspiration photo from Style Me Pretty, and she brought the vision to life! I wore it in my engagement photos and received so many compliments! She even dropped it off at my house which was very convenient when I had a busy schedule at work. Thank you, Lora!"
