A few years ago I ran across a wedding photographer out of Detroit whose work was perfect. My favorite instagram follow for sure. Niki Marie Photo. And then this fall she announced a workshop right near me in beautiful Charleston. It was chock full of learning and beauty and pampering and photo opportunities. So much that I can’t fit it all in this one blog post.
We started with an attendee dinner with the most amazing farm to table meal at Frannie & The Fox complete with perfect florals and gifts. (Check out my instagram stories for some bts images from this.) The co-host, Festoons and Flourishes didn’t miss a need or moment. Each time we changed locations there was a new, customized, personalized gift. Whether it was a notebook with your name etched and the honeybee theme she subtly wove throughout the week. The vendors they enlisted (listed below) provided impeccable teaching and products. It was just divine.
So, here are the images of the first few moments of the first day…
