The feeling of fall is in the air and just like the new season we have a few new pretties to introduce you to this Saturday morning! I just love love love making the connection of our readers with our advertisers – it’s a match made in wedding heaven, and today’s lineup is full of lovely! We have serious talent behind the lens with Sherrell Photography and Lisa Davenock Photography – their images speak for themselves. And then there is the floral goodness of Petalena whose gorg bouquets will have you at hello. So get cozy and get to know each other – y’all are meant to be!
From Sherrell Photography…Larry and Tabitha Sherrell started their life together doing what they love best. Taking pictures! Each of them bring their individuality to their work. Larry’s thoughtfulness, technical savvy and ninja like presence helps them to get the shots that no one knew were taken. Tabitha is amiable and intuitive. Together they please.
From Lisa Davenock Photography….the three words that best describe my wedding photography are romantic, playful, and adventurous. I would consider my style to be editorial: a fusion of photojournalistic event coverage with stylish portraiture. I’m definitely not a traditional style photographer and I *love* doing wedding photography in out of the ordinary places…the quirkier, the more adventurous, the better. I would dunk every bride and groom in the water if I could…though I think most of them would dunk me first. I’ve been shooting weddings full time since 2007 and have now shot over 100 weddings all over New England, Canada, and beyond.
Special I would like to offer SMP brides: anyone who books a wedding with me (wedding date must be before Dec 31, 2012) will receive a complimentary bridal fashion portrait session, boudoir session, or trash the dress session.
From Petalena…Petalena is a boutique floral design studio servicing Boston and all of New England. Their unique style reflects an appreciation for the natural world with inspiration from European floral design and contemporary technique and artistry. Petalena’s unique custom floral creations capture the mood and spirit of their clients and each event. Petalena has had the pleasure of working with some of Boston’s best and most sought-after vendors and venues. Their design work has been featured in many of New England’s renowned wedding publications including Boston Magazine’s – Boston Weddings, Brides Boston, The Knot Boston Magazine and The Boston Globe Sunday Magazine Wedding Issue. Most recently Petalena was voted “Best of the Knot” for 2010 and 2011, receiving accolades from their clients for their distinctive floral designs. Wedding Wire also honored Petalena in 2010, and in 2011 with the “Bride’s Choice Award,” a distinction that recognizes the top 5% of wedding from professionals for their excellence in quality, service, and professionalism. Petalena’s florals and décor have graced New England’s most unique hotels and venues including The Boston Public Library, Liberty Hotel, Taj Boston, Willowdale Estate, Cambridge Multicultural Arts Center and The Lyman Estate, .
Petalena’s founder Apryl Sahadi has the greenest thumb of anyone you will ever meet and is a true artist when it comes to all things floral. Her love affair with flowers started at a young age growing up with the beauty surrounding her at her mother’s flower shop in Connecticut. After attending school at The Boston Conservatory, she opened her own event design studio and the rest is history!
So take a little stroll on this Saturday morning to her pretty sites and show her some SMP support! We’re couldn’t be more happy to have her join our Style Me Pretty Massachusetts Family!
