Brushes and Braids

Final touches ✨
Also known as Do Not Disturb.

The last few minutes we get with our bride are some of the most meaningful. It’s where calm energy takes over, every last detail is perfected, and it all starts to feel real.

The final touches before she becomes a bride. 🩵

Rich in life because I get to create with these beauties.

When I started Brushes and Braids, I thought I’d be doing all of this on my own. Thankfully, the universe had even better plans and placed each of these women in my life exactly when I needed them.

The fact that most of them have been by my side for 4+ years makes me want to ugly cry. 🥹

Together, we’ve been part of 600+ weddings, traveled to 8 states, worked 4 Bonnaroos, made it through a pandemic, weathered a natural disaster, and celebrated countless milestones.

Turns out, the right people were the real dream all along. 🫶🏻
