From life so far: do what you love, and be unapologetically passionate about it.

A: Everything. Paper goods are a beautiful medium for all sorts of creative exploration. Then you add in the couple who has their own story, and personalities and you get to collaborate with them. Cherry on top: having the guests get this envelope in the mail holding a beautiful surprise that is your wedding invitation. It’s the little things.
