Carolynn Giordano and her little dog Maromi are both so sweet! Carolynn will be introducing her new Two Brunettes website soon, showcasing her incredible talent in design, illustration, and for you lovely brides to be… custom branding for any event! Until her new site is up, be sure to subscribe to her great blog here. Needless to say, I was beyond honored and thrilled, when she asked little ol’ me to photograph her new portraits. We took some photographs at her studio…

Then we braved that cold New York weather for some of my new favorite portraits to date. As you’ll soon see, I had a hard time picking my favorites, so I went ahead and indulged in a feast of photos. Do you have a favorite?

Thanks Carolynn! Give that little muppet Maromi a kiss for me. xoxo

Thanks Carolynn! Beth and I had such a great time with you today! xoxo

It’s been a long time coming, but I’m finally introducing a new segment to my blog called “vendor introductions.” My goal is to present you with amazingly talented wedding vendors! So without further ado, get on your happy shoes, and make the acquaintance of Tara Hogan of Ink + Wit…

I first found Tara on the internet. I was so excited to find a wedding invitation designer and graphic artist of such immense talent right here in little ol’ central New York! So of course, I had to meet her. Tara is not only filled to the brim with talent, but she is also beautiful from every perspective… inside, outside, you name it, she oozes awesomeness. Here she is at her home studio…

Here are some of her beautiful letterpress wedding invitations. Did you hear that? Letterpress!!!

Of course, Tara can fulfill all of your wedding design needs. Invitations, maps, thank you cards, menus, you name it, she can design it with style and heart…

Love this candid of Tara…

Tara is very environmentally oriented, and uses a lot of “green” materials in her creations. She shares all of her passions on her blog Ink + Wit, which include yoga, interior design, travel, vegan & raw foods, and of course her own creations. Here is a sampling of her creative repertoire…

She is also the creative brainstorm behind many company brands and identities. Love this halo of business cards Tara designed…

In addition to beautiful prints, cards, and invitations, I also just love her packaging. She often uses fun twine and custom made pin back buttons. I just had to get this adorable animal alphabet poster. You can get one too at Tara’s Ink + Wit online shop.

Loving these adorable gift cards…

Here is another beautiful portrait of Tara in her home studio…

Once again, if you need a fantastic designer…

Tara Hogan of Ink + Wit is your gal! Thank you Tara… you raise the bar!! xoxo
