Styled Shoot with All Things *Winter*

This styled wedding was curated and designed by Brandon Nichols with Lina Hokeman Events, whose charismatic energy and eye for detail was the winning charm to showcasing every beautiful part of this day.

Inspired bu a winter wedding during the happiest time of the year, the holidays! Christmas cheer and holiday hooray had a hand in every detail, with the beading of the dress reflecting like a silvery ornament, to the festive cocktails and the warm cozy light from the inside of the lodge.

Photographers and wedding vendors all collaborate together to bring a vision to life and this event is called a "styled shoot" which benefits the vendors as much as it does the entire wedding & creative community. This is a way we can express our style and creative concepts without the pressure and stress of somebody's actual wedding day. It gives the creative freedom to experiment with new techniques, style, or method without the risk of experimenting with somebody's real wedding day memories. These events are imperative to the learning and development of getting better with my craft, as a photographer and professional. These images serve to showcase and portfolio my abilities to reach future wedding clients.

This styled shoot was a day filled with beautiful holiday inspired details to bring the vision of a Colorado winter wedding to life! We didn't receive any snow but the winter magic was there thanks to the amazing vendors and partners that participated. Our lovely models for the day are real life newlyweds who celebrated their wedding day just a couples month prior. They were excited to dress back up and relive the moments, they even said they were excited to have some extra photos to look back on. Many thanks to these two and the rest of the dream team that made it all happen.
