Hello it's me, Rose Boyer, owner and photographer of Rose and Grain Studio. Healing from a broken toe this winter was really challenging and definitely hindered my ability to get out of the house as much and also mentally focus on my business as much as I had planned to in doing some work behind the scenes and sharing more here. After taking a few months to heal and go inward this spring is really making me feel like I am coming back to life. My toe has healed really well and I can't wait to be out soon again, doing what I love. A few dates of my husband's work travels have crystallized making it easier to plan shoots this month going forward. Making some coffee and settling in to email some clients and schedule some engagement sessions today.
Thank you all very much for your support and for following my page and to those who allow me to create with you. Looking forward to the cherry blossoms up the street at highland park soon and all the art and intention I want to put into my business this month. So excited for the engagement shoots and weddings I have booked this year.
Yesterday I dyed my hair and today I got this beautiful haircut from Emily Rose at Julianna Salon. Loving the new look and feeling ready for fresh spring energy.
The days are getting longer and I am here if you would like to plan a special shoot or talk about your wedding. My books are officially open for 2023.

When early morning light hits your window as you get ready for your wedding just right, and you are relaxed and excited because you followed your photographer's tips

1. put both rings and some details such as perfume invitation and jewelry in a box the night before
2. choose a getting ready space that is beautiful and had lots of light in an area without a lot of clutter/busy backgrounds. Pro tip: have your bridal party do a final sweep of clutter in the area just before your photographer arrives
3. Have your hair and make up done early enough to have a window to breathe between that step and getting dressed so the last 15 minutes aren't stressful
4. Have your photographer help you with planning your timeline, use your resources and take advantage of the experts in your corner
5. Carefully select vendors you trust fully so you can be at ease and know you are in good hands as each curated part of your day comes together.
6. Made sure to eat something and drink enough water throughout the day
7. Have the support of your loved ones and family and delegate some tasks ahead of time to family or the wedding party to not have too much on your plate the morning of
8. Remember to take a deep breath and enjoy being in the moment through the process
9. Focus on love and gratitude anytime you feel overwhelmed
10. Make sure you pick a photographer you feel comfortable with as this person will be with you through the day and help set the tone. The right photographer can make the whole experience as fun and easy for you as possible so you can enjoy the moments that matter as you create beautiful core memories with your crew. 🌸

Getting ready photos were important to this bride and one way she prepared was by planning to get ready in an area with minimal clutter and lots of natural light.
Capturing this sweet moment between Jenna and her mother was a great way to wrap up some of her bridal getting ready portraits before they both went up to get dressed.
