Morning After Photo Shoot
Creates Controversy
Whether really a trend or not, this sexy photo spread is
getting a lot of attention. Allegedly, brides and grooms are
g after their
lettingg the camera in the bedroom the morning
wedding ceremony.
Inspired by the new Armani underwear campaign featuring
David and Victoria Beckham some crazy photographer
from NJ had an idea to “capture the moment. ” The
photographer actually shot a “test” couple about a month
after they married and then posted the photos all over the
internet.
Since the photos hit the media outlets about a month ago,
there’s been a firestorm regarding the concept. Is it totally
inappropriate or totally hot? A lot of both!
Other photographers have come out to say that they have
been doing morning after photo shoots for years! The
difference is theirs are G rated with couples jumping on the
bed and fully clothed. Less trashy and more classy.

Blogs We Love!
Our Take:
From Tacori rings , artsy photography and hippie website
recommendations PeterLoveJane is pretty cool. The
blogger loves old buildings, rainy days and wallpaper.
They are inspired by fabulous prints, music and nighttime.
Their Take:
“At Peter Loves Jane, we love feeling love, obsess over
design and always set a pretty table. We can’t get enough
of typography and texture. We love experimenting with
design; taking the tried-and-true and combining it with
something fresh.”
Our Take:
Amazing photos of beautiful people and beautiful
weddings taken by gifted professionals. All the weddings
resemble a fairy tale. We were happy to notice that some
of the story’s featured were shot for magazines.
Their Take:
“Ruffled started in August 2008 as a space to share
vintage inspired and handmade ideas for weddings.
