As a wedding photographer, capturing the essence of love, joy, and unique celebrations is at the heart of my work. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing a styled shoot at Sage & Social, a stunning wedding venue that offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and modern charm. This shoot was nothing short of magical, featuring three different couples, each bringing their own unique style and personality to the scene.
Katy & Jason: A Whimsical Romance
Our first couple, Katy and Jason, embodied a whimsical romance that was perfectly complemented by the enchanting setting at Sage & Social. We started with a beautiful flower wall on the lawn, surrounded by tall trees that allowed the sun to peek through just right. The natural light filtering through the leaves created a soft, dreamy ambiance that highlighted the couple’s love and joy.
One of the highlights of Katy and Jason’s session was the white bounce house. Yes, you read that right—a bounce house at a wedding! This added a playful twist to the shoot, resulting in some of the most fun and candid photos I’ve ever taken. Watching them laugh and jump around was a reminder that weddings are not only about elegance but also about embracing the joy of the moment.
Jasmin & Steve: Classic Elegance with a Modern Twist
Next up were Jasmin and Steve, who brought a touch of classic elegance with a modern twist to their shoot. Jasmin wore a short, fun elopement dress that was perfect for their chic and stylish vibe. We started with photos by the getaway car, complete with a “Just Married” sign and cans tied to the back. The car added a vintage touch, while Jasmin’s long veil added a touch of timeless elegance.
The combination of the car, the veil, and the couple’s natural chemistry made for some stunning shots. The backdrop of Sage & Social provided a beautiful contrast to the sleek, modern look of Jasmin and Steve, creating a perfect blend of old and new.
Erika & Reuben: Elegant Charm and Cozy Vibes
Our final couple, Erika and Reuben, brought elegant charm and cozy vibes to the shoot. We headed to the picnic area, which was set up with a gorgeous wedding cake and the trailer bar from Tipsy Lemon. This area was perfect for capturing the laid-back, intimate feel of a unique wedding.
Erika and Reuben ordered drinks from the Tipsy Lemon, and I couldn’t resist joining in. The drinks were delicious and added a casual, fun element to the photos. The couple’s relaxed demeanor and genuine affection for each other made for some truly heartwarming shots.
A Slip n’ Slide Finale
To top off this incredible day, all three couples joined together for a grand finale on the slip n’ slide! They changed into their swimsuits and got very wet and soapy, laughing and sliding their way into the evening. This unexpected twist was a blast to photograph and perfectly captured the playful, joyous spirit of the day.
Conclusion
This styled shoot at Sage & Social was a dream come true, showcasing not only the stunning beauty of the venue but also the diverse ways in which couples can celebrate their love. From whimsical bounce houses to vintage getaway cars and fun picnic setups, the possibilities are endless.
I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with such amazing couples and to capture their unique love stories in such a beautiful setting. If you’re looking for inspiration for your wedding, Sage & Social offers a perfect canvas to create your dream day.
Stay tuned for more beautiful moments and unique wedding inspirations from behind the lens!
