I love getting dressed up to go to a wedding! While it’s a little different dressing as a photographer than a guest, I still enjoy picking out what to wear. Earlier this month, I decided to start a new segment about my wedding outfits! Each month I’ll share a few outfits that I actually wore to work. I am in no way a fashion blogger, but I hope this can help some of you as you attempt to discover your style in the field!
I’m not one to shy away from wearing a dress to work. In fact, I prefer it! This black number is a classic staple in my photography wardrobe. It’s comfortable, breezy, and conservative. Paired with a sock bun and shoes with touch of color, this outfit was a smashing success. If you’re worried about mobility, wear a pair of active shorts underneath like I do!
DRESS | MODCLOTH
SHOES | TIEKS
SHORTS | TARGET
EARRINGS | KATE SPADE NY
April weekends were back and forth in weather. It was particularly chilly during one of my weddings, so I went with pants! These trousers fit like a dream, so much so that I own two of the exact same pair. I tucked in a polka dotted blouse, then finished the look with rose gold flats.
TROUSERS | SANCTUARY
TOP | ANN TAYLOR LOFT
SHOES | AEROSOLES
NECKLACE | ANTHROPOLOGIE
My last wedding of April was a unique event. It was a baseball themed affair and it took place on an actual ball field. The weather was forecasted to be warm, with a slight window for rain. With an indoor reception, I decided even with the chance of rain, I’d take my chances with a dress. This spotted piece has adorable ruffled cap sleeves, but flows away from the body to keep it modest.

Which was your favorite outfit of the month? Check back next month to see how I stray away from black and white, but keep it wedding professional friendly! Feel free to drop a comment below and let me know what you would like to see on the blog in the future. I love suggestions. :)

I love this new blog series, as I 1. stink at fashion and 2. never know what to wear to work! I always end up with the same 2 pairs of black pants and the same 2 or 3 tank tops with a cardigan. BORING. Thanks for the inspiration!

Yay! I’m so glad you like it. I’m excited to elevate it more through the coming months. And about my outfits for May weddings!!

Ash, I love Your style!
My favorite was the black dress! You looked super adorable in it!)
(In full disclosure I wear Active shorts under my dresses too! I have Passed this onto my daughter as well!)

That’s the only way to do it, girl! No worries of any Marilyn Monroe moments that way. HEHE!

I can’t thank you enough for this and is “all of the above” an acceptable answer for which is my favorite? I was taught to wear all black when photographing a wedding but you’ve totally sold me on adding pops of color while still looking professional. The sports shorts is THE BEST idea ever!

I LOVE color. I definitely like to wear color to weddings, so I hope in months to come I can show ya more of how I do it!
