Wood Violet

One of my favorite Milwaukee area floral designers is Emily Watson and her dream team at Wood Violet. I recently had the honor of photographing their stunning piece designed for the one night only fashion show at the Milwaukee Art Museum's Art in Bloom event. I had met with Emily a week or two before the event and she shared with me her sketches and vision for their piece. I was immediately dying with anticipation to see this in real life. When that day came, OH.     MY.      GOD.   I was floored. It was even more incredible than I could have imagined possible. The garment was made from all floral and plant elements.  I have to share the experience with you. Here is a snippet of the process, as well as some gorgeous shots we took of our lovely model, Laura at my studio. Please enjoy!
