I first had the pleasure of working with Laura Eaton Photography when working on a pre-wedding event & wedding together in July 2009.

This husband & wife team, Laura & Paul, not only went above & beyond to capture images of this spectacular event, but made sure they were capturing the story as well.

Alia Khan Designer Fashions offer custom tailored fashions, designer clothing and fashion accessories that are culturally authentic, yet globally accepted.

There is nothing more disheartening than finally noticing a color scheme that makes you swoon, only to find out that every bride, corporate planner and design firm on the sphere are planning on using the same hues for their event that season. This, my friends, is called trend.
