Even after many years of marriage, Sandra and Matt still looked at each other as if it was the day of their wedding. His eyes shone with admiration for the woman she has become since then. A mom of two, and an absolute stunner to boot! This Black Tie Styled Shoot at Haus 820 in Lakeland Florida was part of a workshop I was privileged enough to take part in. The feel of the shoot was a luxury black tie affair with stunning but simple details. Shauna and Jordon of Shauna and Jordon Photography did not disappoint!

It is not easy to organise and run a styled shoot for ten professionals, but Shauna and Jordon outdid themselves! There was very little elbowing (the few times it did happen it was accidental); and there were enough stations to keep us all occupied. A few things I learned: A luxury bride is a detail-focused bride, loves simplicity and does not need bright colours to add interest to her big day! So if you’re planning your big day, and you happen to stumble on this post; Yay! I can’t even begin to recommend using minimalism from the details to the dress and everything in between! Just take a peek!
