Victoria Austin Designs REBRAND + REVAMP

January 2015 has been a whole new experience for me. As last Fall progressed, I took on a lot more projects than I anticipated. These projects were the cobblestones to my 2015. I have added an array of services to my ever changing business and it has been a whirlwind of fun! I truly feel like I am getting to the heart of what I do, and it's becoming so much more fulfilling creating beyond paper. I met Kaylie Poplin a few months ago, and I am so thankful that we crossed paths! She has been such an honor to work with, as well as a fabulous friend and support through my business changes. Kaylie helped complete my vision for my new website photos and really helped me start 2015 with a bang. I have a lot of work that I am proud of, both styled and real, but I wanted my website to be cohesive, crisp and my overall style. We had a blast shooting in the lovely neighborhood of Watercolor, fl. We had a few fabulous models and Angela, of Hemstich Vintage Rentals, brought some of her lovely pieces to complete our look.

I just LOVE these so much. Kaylie captured my vision perfectly, and I will always cherish these photos! Little side note, the second model featured is my sister! I am so happy she was in town from Portland, OR to jump in a few of these. There is no "model" out there that will get in a wedding gown and a bathtub as quickly as a sister, haha! I will share some 'behind-the-scenes' images of me and the girls working next! :)

Wedding Invitation Inspiration | Mint + Gold

Happy Friday!
I hope you have had a great week. I had a fun one designing a few different projects, ordering oodles of white florals, and tackling a few to-do's! Jane (Southern Calligraphy) and I designed and printed escort cards and programs for a Massachusetts bride and invitations for a Fairhope bride. I absolutely love teaming up with Jane and putting our skills to work! The mix of calligraphy and typography is definitely my favorite, and Jane nails the calligraphy every time!

I am thrilled that I will finally recieve Jen and JP's envelopes and gold ink in the mail today. I plan to get some R&R this weekend and do some addressing while my husband goes fishing! I cannot wait to get their invites back, they are being letter-pressed by one talented guy. I know they will be beautiful and of course, I can't wait to share the final product with you!
Below is a little inspiration behind their suite design. I loved the simplicity we decided on, while still incorporating fun touches of true gold and soft mint. I can't wait for them to wed later this Fall!
