Welcome to Inspire Me Boutique’s fashion blog!  The first time I met my photographer, Brooke from Ashley Beige Photography, 4 years ago through mutual friends, I knew we could work together and do some amazing wonderful things.  She has so much energy and passion for what she does and her mind is constantly moving and creating in her photography just like I am doing in my business.  We love what we do so much!

That being said, this post shows the collaboration between our businesses along with our model Sarah Bader that was last seen in our “Summer Fun” post.  It started with getting in touch with Sarah to be the model for the shoot.  Brooke and I were both excited to shoot her again because of how natural she was in front of the camera this summer.  I chose the outfits to fit the personality that I thought Sarah could pull off.  From there, I forwarded the pictures to Brooke who came up with the ideas for the setting.

Because black and ivory were the main colors for the shoot with a little pop of color, Brooke chose a grey background with a metallic flooring.  Here Sarah is wearing a simple black cropped tank top and a jaw-dropping Red 23 side shirred jersey skirt.

Back from my buying trip to New York, we just received the Black Lace Tattoo Jewelry that I ordered and am so excited about.  They are self adhesive lasting several days and many of the styles are reusable by applying eyelash glue.  Sarah is wearing the best-selling cross and bracelet design, but there are many other styles to chose from.

She is wearing a wonderful delicate cross rosary necklace by Chan Luu.

Sarah’s headpiece was inspired by a style that I saw in the newest Chan Luu catalog and so I decided to try and duplicate it for our shoot for a pop of color on Sarah’s gorgeous face.

She is wearing an adored “pocketed” flowy long skirt by Weston Wear.

A simple twisted pearl drop earring works wonders with any outfit.

Brooke works her magic in all these images and she captured Sarah beautifully in this pose with smoke billowing from the stacks.

To sweeten things up a little, I chose pearls and this babydoll dress.  Here she has several long Chan Luu necklaces layered with a short Bud to Rose bar necklace.

We “girlyed” it up by giving her silver balloons and round pearl sunglasses.

The small hoop earrings are by Chan Luu and the tiny crystal ball ring is by Bud to Rose.

She was a STAR model that day!

This is one of my favorite photos because it’s uplifting and makes me happy!

This darling antique ivory babydoll dress is by Johnny Was.  It comes unlined, so I put a white slip under it here but it looks just as great with a black slip.

I wanted to finish off her boho chic looks with this stunning embroidered jacket by Johnny Was and high waisted shorts by BB Dakota.

The beautiful necklaces and bracelets are all handcrafted by hila. designs and the ring is by Brighton all add to this breathtaking look!
