WHAT EXACTLY IS A FLAT LAY ANYWAY???
It is: Before the first look, the walk down the aisle; before the vows, the happy tears, and the first dance.
❤ The LOVE STORY begins here ❤
You may just see a collection of beautiful things. An invitation, rings, flowers, jewelry, ribbons, but a flat lay is so much more than a photograph of wedding details.
It's a visual prologue to the wedding day.
Every piece was chosen by Olivia and Danny. The invitation that welcomed their favorite people. The rings they'll wear every day. The colors, textures, and little details that helped tell the story of who they are together.
This is one of my favorite parts of a wedding day because it's where I get to be the most creative. I gather all the pieces of the day and create a little "mood board" of what's about to unfold.
(What you don't see is me crawling around on the floor, moving things a quarter inch at a time, chasing the best window light, and sweating over whether a ribbon should go left or right. 😂 I am almost always convinced that if someone walked in and watched me work, they'd wonder if I'd completely lost my mind....*why is the photographer laying on the floor....is she alright....? )
But when it all comes together, it becomes more than a photograph.
It becomes the opening page of Olivia and Danny's Love Story. ❤️
