Hahaha, sorry about the anime teaser! But rest assured the figure photoshoot<\/a> I postponed last week is being posted next!… Instead, here’s the photoshoot I promised weeks ago to take for my brother Joel. He’s getting married this September 1st, and this is my simple but effective step-by-step capture of “unraveling” the invitation as designed by his fiancee Christy. Nice, huh?<\/p>\n

Now slipping into review mode (lol): While some may proclaim a lack of crispness or boldness, this horizontally-oriented lower-cased invitation definitely conveys an unimposing elegance which reflects the wedding location at the Japanese-styled Kitano New York<\/a> hotel. The maroon, leaf green, and gold color scheme also works. But then, if I’m going to be a groomsman, why do they want me to wear a navy blue<\/em> suit? Gahhh, lol. Okay, let’s get to the dozen-photo unraveling…<\/p>\n

LOL, the only touch I miss is the absence of an accompanying scent, as applied in my best friend Vanessa’s wedding invitations<\/a>, also dated September 1st! I still love that Victoria’s Secret<\/a> “Romantic Wish” scent, but that’s just me! :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
