Rustic country wedding ideas

It's been a crazy week here at Chez Sparrow with working non stop and buying houses. Who knew there could be so much paperwork involved?! But the best part of the week has to be the lovely email I received from a film photographer with a thanks and a boost to help me what was becoming a self-pity day. There are many photographers and small business owners in the wedding industry who I just know feel the same as what I have done this week. Exhausted, worrisome and just plain overwhelmed. It's great to know there can be something as little as a great email to pick you back up and give yourself the proverbial kick up the bum! And I can't forget the amazingly pretty I get sent into my inbox on a daily basis! Check out this feminine and beautiful styled wedding inspiration shoot from LightSplash Photography. The Californian light just looks incredible shining down on the peach roses and intricate wedding gowns and this shoot is full of rustic country wedding ideas. My day just got a whole heap better...

From Kati at LightSplash Photography: "I collaborated with an amazing florist/wedding planner/designer for this styled shoot. The location is a beautiful 12 acre family owned ranch snuggled in the caramel foothills of San Jose CA. According to their website, "The Rubalcava ranch is nestled in a picturesque valley rich with views, warm temperatures and mild breezes. This beautiful venue and unique setting provides the perfect locale for the special event you want to celebrate amongst nature's glory." I had an opportunity to photograph a wedding here the month before and thought it was the perfect location for a styled photo shoot. After meeting with Kristina of Simply Stunning Weddings and Events, we decided that, for the venue, a rustic and country style was best. We used Kristina's sister, Marrissa, owner of Borelli Designs, as our main female model. Kristina designed the details pulling from her supply of rustic furniture and beautiful jewelry and created the beautiful floral arrangements. O Spa did an amazing job with the hair and makeup, we couldn't has asked for a better team. We wanted to do a bit of a rustic themed shoot and the designer added in the Frieda-like head piece which I just fell in love with. All the outfits and jewelery were sourced via vintage shops and the designers personal closet. All images were photographed on film with a combination of a Rolliflex and a Mamiya 645."
