authentically you workshops | green and white wedding inspo | dark and moody wedding inspo in portland or

One of the best parts of this industry is getting to assist in the journey of others just starting out and chasing their dreams. When Hannah and Liz of Authentically You Academy reached out to have me style their educational workshop for budding photographers, it was an instant yes.

I got to work assembling a team for a two-day experience at Beast Daylight Studios in Portland OR, and here were the results:

Day 2 brought a completely different vibe into the space, as I created a rock n’ roll wedding with a few witchy elements incorporated. I leaned heavily into the alternative and moody design and tapped a few new event industry professionals to pull of this look:
