Photoshoot Friday: Friendsgiving Styled Shoot

This past October I got to plan a styled shoot with some wonderful Birmingham vendors! Since fall is my favorite season and Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, I wanted that to be the inspiration behind the shoot. I also wanted to try and use some newer vendors in the area to be able to show off their talents, as well as get some great shots for our websites. We were able to get them published on West Elm's blog Front + Main and The Birmingham Bride! I wanted to do my own post to show some more of my favorite shots.

Photoshoot Friday: Website Shoot (Part 5 of 5)

For the fifth and final part of the Website Shoot series, I wanted to post a couple of pictures of the floral arranging I did for the shoot and to show off the great pictures Mary Margaret took of the arrangement! Thank y'all so much for joining along while I've posted all of these pictures from this shoot!

I like to think I get better each time I make another arrangement, but regardless, I thoroughly enjoy being around beautiful, fresh-cut flowers!

Photoshoot Friday: Website Shoot (Part 4 of 5)

For the fourth part of the website shoot, I wanted to share some of the food styling pictures.

I styled a Crudite & Hummus platter for some color and texture.

I also did a Cheese & Charcuterie platter, Rustic Tomato Tart,

and Baked Feta Dip for a "wine night".

Photoshoot Friday: Website Shoot (Part 3 of 5)

This week I am posting about some of my interior styling that I did with my dish hutch and bar cart. I have tried to make every place I've lived a home instead of just a house and here are some pictures of how I've done that.

I wanted my hutch to be pretty while still being useful. I made stacks of my nicer dishes so they would be more accessible for parties and styling. I stored some of my linens in a basket so that I can get to them easily for dinner. I wanted the overall look to be effortlessly styled. 

Here is a list of where I purchased some of my dishes and decor:

Art Deco Glasses: West Elm

Gold Etched Champagne Glasses: Anthropologie

Moscow Mule Mugs: Sur La Table

Large White Bowls: Pier 1

White & Gold Rimmed Bowls: Hobby Lobby

Inside Out Bowls: Anthropologie

Mini Weck Jars: Weck Jars

Threshold Wellsbridge Plates: Target

Merletto Antique Square Platter: Arte Italica

Brown & Turquoise Dinner Plates: Z Gallerie

Feel free to contact me about any other decor not listed. 

I found a small tea cart in a local antique store that was perfect to style as a bar cart in my space. I put my decanter and glass set on a small silver tray to group it together. I added cocktail napkins with some similar fresh flowers in my vases. Below I grouped together my cocktail cookbooks and mason jar cocktail shaker. The blue and white container holds my extra decanter tags and wine glass stoppers for easy access.  

Here is a list of my bar cart accessories:

Tea Cart: Greystone Antique Mall

Decanter Tags: Anthropologie

Mason Jar Cocktail Shaker: Paper Source

Photoshoot Friday: Website Shoot (Part 2 of 5)

For the second part of the shoot, I wanted to show off my styled workspace and bookshelf. 

I have a little nook under the stairs and right when I saw it, I knew I wanted it to be my "office". I've tried to create a productive environment and I like to think it's working!

I can't recall where I've purchased everything, but I will try my best to make an accurate list.
