Wedding Vendor Content Photo Shoot
Styled Shoot
Wedding Business Content Photos
Content photos are some of my favorite to take. So, I was so excited when Hannah from Bird Nest Events asked me to be a part of this styled shoot! Hannah was a past bride of mine turned into a friend! While I no longer shoot weddings, being a part of this shoot and working with so many talented vendors was a no brainer. Hannah recently started her own wedding coordinating business and put together this styled content photo shoot for her and all of the other lovely vendors!
Hannah truly did SO much planning. It is an understatement when I say this shoot would not have happened without her! She met with Peoria, Illinois florist, J Blu Design, and planned out the gorgeous ceremony tree floral installation. Hannah was there with the model picking out the dress and accessories from Adagio Bridal Boutique. She planned out the layout of EVERYTHING, coordinated times and pickups, brainstormed and perfected ideas with each vendor, and the list of what this gal did for the shoot goes on and on and on. I absolutely LOVED being able to work with a past bride, and Hannah was a dream to work with on this shoot.
This content photo shoot was hosted at a soon-to-be barn wedding venue in Illinois, Haven on the Farm - opening date is TBD. The vintage truck is a part of their property, and is sure to make a fun addition to its future couple’s weddings. I loved the challenge of working with so many businesses at once. Being able to get content photos for everyone to use is no easy feat!
I absolutely LOVE Airstreams, so working with Clink, a Peoria area mobile bar, was super exciting! The floral installation by J Blu Design in front made it absolutely perfect. Clink is exactly what I would hope for in a mobile bar and is such a fun addition to any event! Their photos are some of my favorites!! All of the vendors made for a stunning shoot! Weddings by Hayley, Adagio Bridal Boutique, and That Guy’s Secret made our lovely models, Sarah and Christian, even more gorgeous (I’m not quite sure how that was possible!!). Baked Blessings by Lisa created the most delicious works of art, I Do Events decorated the place to perfection, Summer + Sage Creative created a GORGEOUS wedding stationary suite, and Paul Andrew Media and I had a wonderful time capturing it all!!!
Content photos are a part of brand photography that I value so much, especially with the emphasis on social media marketing for businesses these days. Providing business photography services for all of my local biz friends is a dream that I don’t have to wake up from. I work really closely with my brand clients from shoot planning to editing to make sure that I can capture their brand in a way that not only fits, but elevates the business. I offer a few different content photo session options: headshot sessions, a longer content session, and recurring monthly content sessions—so there is something for every type and stage of business!

A HUGE thank you to Hannah at Bird Nest Events. This styled shoot was so great to be a part of, all on account of Hannah’s planning. I can not shout her out enough!! If you need an event coordinator, Hannah will be there for you all the way through!
