Spring Cherry Blossoms were the inspiration for this editorial photo shoot with photographer Gabriella Mata, but Aspen woke up to a surprise blanket of snow on that chilly April morning... a good reminder that you never can count on the weather in Colorado!

Gabi and I had a blast pulling together our favorite creatives and designers to collaborate on the concept. Check out the vendor list below to see whose talents brought the vision to life.

The models chosen for this shoot were close friends IRL. I worried a bit that they wouldn't have the right chemistry to play a couple, but thankfully I was wrong! Months later, when it came time to share the photos after their publication in Magnolia Rouge, I was thrilled to find out that they are now dating!
