Onada — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 03:19:41 +0000

I’m excited to share part 2 of the gorgeous tablescapes I shot for Kathy Bado of TheWeddingFactor.com. As I mentioned before it was a lot of fun to shoot and a great experience and I enjoyed being around the awesomely talented Kathy, Hilary and Vic who put all the pieces of the shoot together. I’m definitely looking forward to more shoots like this one :) Enjoy!

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend – I did :) and I also finally got round to creating a new blog post!

Below is part one of the awesome tablescape shoot I did last month with my wedding planner, Kathy Bado. It was a lot of fun and definitely a great experience. I got to work with some amazing Philadelphia/South NJ wedding vendors (who also happen to be vendors for my wedding as well) and it was really great to see them put everything together. I’m definitely excited to see what they’ll do at my wedding!

Jay West Fashion Show

Onada — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 02:07:16 +0000

Last month i got to shoot a fashion show for Jay West Bridal Boutique (I did a bridal shoot for them last year here).The fashion show took place at The Mansion on Main Street in Voorhees where they also had a bridal event going on. I’ve never been to a bridal event and although I got there towards the tail end of it as it wrapped up for the fashion show to start, it was still pretty interesting! My friend Rachel modeled in the fashion show and it was fun to watch all the pretty dresses come down the runway!

Dresses: Jay West, Haddonfield NJ
Hair and Make-up:Bethany Bell and team

Hopefully the bride’s-to-be out there can find some dress inspiration below -

One of the models getting ready -It’s all about the hair spray :)

Some of the pretty wedding dresses

These bridesmaids dresses are not what you usually see at weddings – gorgeous!

Thanks for stopping by and I’ll be back with a new post highlighting what else I’ve been up to!

A full week with no blog updates? I have a valid excuse! I’ve been on vacation (which I’ll blog about it later) for a much needed break but I’m back now : ) and so here goes -

In addition to Ata’s maternity session (see below), I also did a shoot for her business as well – Ata is the owner of InkHearts.com and she creates the most gorgeous stationery and invitations. I’m a huge fan of female entreprenuers and I love love love showcasing their work whenever I can on my blogs. Below is some more information about her business taken from the website -

“ Inkhearts offers wedding invitations, birthday invitations, baby shower invitations, menus, programs, and much more. We would love to be part of your special event and create that one of a kind design that would set the tone for your event and leave a lasting impression on your guests.

Ata Ashiru of Inkhearts has been creating custom wedding invitations and much more for friends and family over the years but with continued persistence from her loving husband and darling sisters, Inkhearts was formally launched.

Ata has always had a creative edge and deep appreciation for elegance and saw the opportunity to offer understated but elegant designs with a modern flair to clients around the globe that would suit all budgets. All custom creations are personally and carefully designed to reflect the client’s individual style and taste. ”

If you are a 2010 bride to be, you definately check out InkHearts.com

I’ll be back with another blog post soon!

Jay West Bridal Salon Ad Campaign – Part 1

Onada — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 14:27:09 +0000

I was so fortunate to work with Jay West for my first Ad Campaign. I don’t know if there’s any girl in Southern New Jersey who hasn’t heard of this store - They have been around for 40 YEARS and they have the most amazing bridal, prom and evening wear. Sue and Melissa were amazing and helped to pick out the fabulous dresses you see in this post.

Maria and her team did an amazing job on the hair and make up too - it definately completed the look on each model and she nailed the look we wanted on each model perfectly.

The models were perfect – all that standing outside int he sun wearing heavy dresses is no easy task – Thanks ladies.

I’ll be posting my favorite images in two posts. I’m so grateful for this opportunity. It was an amazing experience and was a total blast!

oh and a big thank you to Kathryn Croskey for helping out too : )

Dresses: Jay West, Haddonfield NJ
Hair and Make-up: Salon M Design, Haddonfield NJ
Models: Erin, Rachel, Ashley and Kerri

First up Rachel and Erin – Enjoy!

One of my favorite pictures (although the sun was practically burning Rachel up – she was an amazing sport!)

Love Erin’s amazing hair done by Maria from Salon M
