Berries, Pears, and Rich Velvets…

Recently, our Albuquerque Perfect Wedding Guide team shared an awesome photo shoot created by Albuquerque Perfect Wedding Guide Photographer Maura Jane Photography.

They had hosted a wedding workshop in their new studio and ended with this beautiful styled shoot.

One of my favorite couples, Amanda and James volunteered to model and had us laughing the entire shoot. They were married in Texas last April and it’s always so wonderful to get to see them again.

Lauren with Just Lovely Weddings styled the most beautiful fall harvest tablescapes full of berries, pears, and rich velvets. She did beautiful calligraphy on craft paper with one of her favorite love quotes, surrounded by candles to set the mood.

Our very own Sara, who also owns Emerald Pie Bar, made yummy macaroons and berry tarts, and in lieu of a cake, a delectable pie.

Adri, of The Flow Company, put together the most jaw-dropping floral arrangements full of rich autumn colors, with protea, eucalyptus and burgundy cremons.

Amanda sported a matching floral piece in her hair with simple yet elegant makeup by the talented Genica Lee.

She looked breathtaking in a Maggie Sottero long-sleeve gown, James equally as dapper in a navy suit from The Black Tux.

We love the beautiful details like the vintage bar cart used for desserts, the craft paper scroll that adorned the sweetheart table and the rich colors.

We are huge fans of photos with the groom carrying the bride’s bouquet; it really pops against the background and we love the textures in this bouquet.
