Lake Tahoe Photo Shoot | Rugged Meets Refined

Yippee - We have a photo shoot to share with you! We had the pleasure of working with some of our very favorite vendors, including Johnstone StudiosStems by DianaDoxa Studios, and the Ritz-Carlton to create a beautiful table inspiration filled with rugged and refined elements. We are often asked for inspirational ideas on what we like to call "rustic elegance" - elegant ideas with touches of rustic appeal. Well, You ask - we deliver! We designed a table of intertwining elements that consisted of rugged textures juxtaposed with elegant and soft touches. We also curated elements not normally found on dinner tables - rugged slate we fashioned into beautiful chargers, different sizes of tin cans spray painted rich metal tones, and unique floral choices such as dried pea pods and cotton.  The Manzanita Restaurant a the Ritz Carlton, Lake Tahoe was the perfect locale for our shoot, especially because it has a large leather accent wall that provided the perfect backdrop to our rugged meets refined shoot! Take a peek at the video below to see how it all came together.

Thank you to our fabulous crew of talented vendors for helping us bring this idea to life!
