Victorian Anything.

I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am taffy stuck and tongue tied
Stutter shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am fine

At one point, when I was a little girl, I wanted to be Amish. I had a slight obsession with turn of the century...well...anything, books...movies...and I figured becoming Amish was the closest thing to living that. Well...that or strive to get a job at Old World Wisconsin leading tours.

I quickly grew out of my romanticized outlook on travel-by-buggy and long skirts with aprons, but I never lost my love for Victorian and Edwardian...well...anything. I love Victorian era photography especially. Julia Margaret Cameron is one of my all-time favorite photographers.

So, when Nikki and Steve contacted me about their Victorian-themed wedding, I was completely jazzed to take it on. I was able to kind of stretch my aesthetic a bit and involve some of the washed-out colors, vintage toned black-and-whites, and blurred images that I love but tend to hold back on a bit sometimes. I cannot wait to start editing this bunch, it's bound to be fun!

Enjoy your sneak peek guys!

I had to leave this shot in full, un-messed-with color. The light was just too perfect.
