Pride and Prejudice meets Crimson Peak meets BBC’s Victoria at this Georgian estate wedding
My husband and I are great lovers of history, literature, and the arts. I grew up as the child of an actor and an opera singer and Steven's father is also a musician, so we were both immersed in the world of the performing arts from birth.

Travel among fictitious worlds at this steampunk engagement shoot
Karina and Colin’s wedding theme is going to be traveling among fictitious worlds — between movies and books and games.

Since they’re part of their local steampunk community, it seemed natural to incorporate that into their engagement photos with outfits from some of our favorite steampunk vendors.
