Guest Blog: Tiffany Vaughan Photography --- Bold. Sassy. Chic.




Hi y'all!  I am Tiffany, owner and lead photographer of Tiffany Vaughan Photography.  I am so excited to meet you and hear all about your wedding plans!  I love everything about weddings. Every little detail that is present in a wedding day is a memory waiting to be created, from the shy, hesitant flower girls that peek down the aisle to the secret smiles and precious tears that are shared as a man and woman vow to dedicate their lives to one another and to their love. 

I get goose bumps when I check my camera and I see the sparkle in a bride's eyes as she spins in her husband's arms during their first dance. With my camera, I capture those seconds where the world stops, when even though everyone that is special to you is in the room, nothing else matters. Nothing interrupts as you hug each other tightly and twirl to your song.

Your love makes me giddy, lightheaded, butterflies in the stomach happy. Every time you kiss, I fall in love all over again. I want to know you, everything, all the little things. I want to hear how you met, when you knew they were the one, how the question was popped, what makes your love story unique. I want to know, and I want to help you remember it forever. 

It is truly my honor to participate in capturing these amazing and once in a lifetime memories. I am happy for the love you share and the forever you represent!  Let me know if you wanna grab a latte and talk weddings, it's my favorite thing to do!

The wedding world is a buzz and anxious for Monday!  While love is surely in the air on Cupid's Day, wedding enthusiasts will be swooning over the opportunity to see the complete collection debuted by Anthropologie....BHLDN.  Short for 'Beholden' and inspired by the Dutch word for 'to keep'.  How sweet is that?  And to be presented to the world on that day of love? Bravo ladies and gentlemen of Anthropologie, bravo.  The BHLDN line will be not only be full of bohemian, frilly, rustic, romantic and oh-so-vintage inspired brides and bridesmaid dresses, but shoes, handbags, and hairpieces to match.  Oh my!

  • All items will be available in the shop for delivery right away – no waiting 6 months for your wedding or bridesmaids dresses

  • All the dresses were designed to be easy for alterations so you could take it to your local tailor and they would be able to alter it no questions asked.
  • Price points range from $1000-$4000 with sizes ranging from 0-14.   Not within your budget you say? Exclusive collections by especially invited designers begin at $600!

The ladies over at Green Wedding Shoes had an opportunity to attend the exclusive fashion show and got up close and personal to some of the lovely dresses and accessories-here's a little taste of what will debut!

Guest Blog: Tiffany Sims Photography....Creative, Natural and Fun Photography

 At Tiffany Sims Photography, my goal as a photographer is to capture a moment in time in the most creative, natural, fun and exciting way.  I love capturing the images that tell the story of your day from the “first look” to “the exit” and everything in between.

My style is a balanced mix of photojournalism, lifestyle and traditional photography while incorporating candid and arranged shots that document the day as it happens.  As a photographer I want to capture those timeless moments in your life and create pieces of art for your family and loved ones that will be cherished over many lifetimes.

I absolutely LOVE catching the real laughs, the real smiles, real tears, and real emotions.  I love to scope out great backgrounds, find the best lighting and create happy, silly, sweet, romantic, and amazing shots.  I like to create photos that show every ounce of the happiness and love you have for one another.

Tiffany Sims Photography offers a variety of Wedding Collections.  Every bride, and every wedding, is different and has different needs.  If my collections aren’t perfect for you I also create Custom Wedding Collections.
