Hello, belles! Nicole and I have spent the last two days in sunny (thank goodness!) South Carolina shooting an editorial for the next issue. It’s been a V6 whirlwind around these parts, actually – we wrapped a shoot in NC last week, we have another scheduled for next week, and are just diving into planning two others for June! You won’t hear a peep of complaint from our lips, though — it makes us positively giddy to piece together beauty we know will eventually make it onto the printed page!
Before too much time gets behind us we wanted to give y’all a little peek at what we’ve been up to. We were lucky to have Graham Terhune on hand to snap behind-the-scene shots on the actual shoot day, but our instagrams will have to tide you over until V6 debuts!
Like so many of our photoshoots (yesterday’s, too!), this joint was the first stop of the day:
We were thrilled to have the chance to work with Katie Stoops again, of course. You may recall she photographed our Williamsburg and Richmond features from past issues!
That’s our intern Jessica up there with Katie, Nicole, and me!
Happily, shoot prep always leaves pretty — and tasty! — extras around the office. Don’t mind if I do…
I’ll leave you with my favorite snap from the day: This was Ms. Katie taking photos of the pretty we had created, but doesn’t this scene look worthy of capture, too? Such an amazing field of clover — we had never seen anything like it!
That may be the last sneak peek you get from our first V6 shoot, but we have more surprises for you! Before you get too antsy with anticipation, we have a fun giveaway for y’all! Our good friends at High Cotton happily gave us a couple of boys bow ties to use for some special gents in this shoot. We couldn’t wait to do a V6 giveaway!
To enter, leave a comment below telling us about the best biscuit you’ve ever tasted and which bow tie you’d love to win. Will it be the Red and White Mini Dot bow tie or the Nantucket Seersucker Stripe bow tie? Tell us before this giveaway closes at midnight on May 22.
If you’re not already, be sure to follow us on Instagram as we spend the summer prepping for V6! We’re here: Southern Weddings, Lara, Emily, Nicole, Marissa, and Kristin.
P.S. Vendors, interested in joining in the fun? We’re working with lots of sponsors already for V6, and would love to have you, too! Email Marissa (marissa at iloveswmag.com) or fill out this form for more info.

I got my tendency to tear up quickly from my mama, so it isn’t much of a surprise that these sweet pictures made me do just that!
[…] some sweet mom/bride/groom moments, and one of mine got picked up! Go check out their post here to see all the motherly […]
Thank you sweet ladies for featuring one of our images! And, happy mama’s day to you Lara!
Thanks for featuring one of our images … moms are definitely the best! Much love to y’all xoxo
Such a sweet post! Thanks for featuring my adorable bride and her loving mama!
Aw, this was an exceptionally nice post. Taking a few minutes and
actual effort to produce a very good article…
but what can I say… I hesitate a lot and never seem to get nearly anything done.
We agree! Wonderful Photography
Question … If my daughters brides mades are petal (soft) pink … Should my mother of the bride dress be a soft sage green or a darker “regency ” purple ?? I’ve asked all my friends and their split down the middle … What’s your take ?? Please email me your thoughts
