a boat filled with wildflowers…

josephine and rodney are engaged and giddy in love.  they told us when we were planning their session that they dream of having a boat together and seeing the world.  so we brought their dream to life!  they fell in love on new year’s eve and thought that “eve” would be the perfect name for their pretty boat.  well we constructed eve, well, donny built her, i decorated her and we filled her to the brim with hundreds and hundreds of wildflowers for her maiden voyage.  it was such a lovely evening with the softest glow of the sun as we set the boat into the moss at the water’s edge.  this has to be one of our most favorite sessions to date, there was surely a little magic in this one.  (lovely hair piece made by gracylu originals!)

(be sure to check out some of our making of the boat instragram snaps at the end!)

and a few of our creation process leading up to the session!  :)
