Now that it is September, I am starting back with Fashion Fridays! I enjoy this opportunity to showcase what our team has been doing on the fashion front in addition to all of the fabulous weddings. Today I have a beautiful session to share from my friend Mary Gardella (photographer extraordinaire). I love her new concept ElleModerne, check it out…
“Photography is an ever changing, ever evolving genre. Blink and you may have missed something or someone that’s pushed the genre to a new level. It’s important to reach out, push oneself and do something new (even if it’s a complete failure). While this new endeavor is in no way, shape or form something new in genre – it’s new to me. And there is much more I’d like to discover with it.
What is ElleModerne, anyway? It is a state of mind – the desire to release, to embrace, to challenge and love yourself now. It is a celebration of all our attributes. It doesn’t matter how old we are or how curvy we are. We are sisters, moms, aunts, grandparents, friends, lovers. We kiss boo boos and run businesses. We fight for rights and cures for breast cancer. We shop & love to have a good time. We are connected deeply. We have so much to give.” -Mary
