floral preservation

What can I say, I’m a woman of many passions! And they all seem to be related to preserving and documenting special memories. I began pressing flowers and foliage the same year that I picked up my first camera, and ever since then I became obsessed with documenting moments and the beauty I saw all around me. What started as pressing flowers in a book to document my travels, has transformed into preserving and creating incredibly meaningful (and practical) wedding keepsakes for my couples.

Frequently asked questions

HOW IS YOUR ART DIFFERENT FROM OTHER FLORAL PRESERVATIONIST ARTISTS?

Most couples book me for my distinctive style. I primarily work with black resin and my layout designs tend to be more wild and whimsical. Rich, moody, and vintage inspired - I often work with different kinds of frames and bezels (often sourced from boutique or vintage shops) as the base for my work.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF WORKING WITH YOU LIKE? 

Step one is to book your wedding or event date as soon as you know you would like to preserve your florals. A signed contract and $250 deposit will secure your date. Prior to your wedding date, I’ll share some tips with you to ensure that the fresh flowers turn into a beautiful preserved piece. I’m happy to share tips on flowers that preserve best as well as handling tips during and after your wedding. If I’m your photographer, I'll simply take the flowers home with me. If not, I’ll provide detailed handling and shipping or drop off instructions to ensure the flowers make it to me in the best possible condition. I must receive floral’s within 24 to 72 hours, ideally as soon as possible. Then the fun begins! I immediately disassemble and begin the dehydration/ preservation process(es). The process looks different, depending on the type of piece you have ordered. This process takes anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks to complete. Once the flowers are fully dried, I assess for usability, and do any reconstruction or correction as needed. At this time you need to fully decide on any pieces you would like. At this time most couples pay in full, or via a pre-set payment plan. Once I receive payment, the creation begins. Final collections are ready for shipping or pick-up within 4-6 months post wedding. 

WHEN SHOULD I BOOK? (IS IT OK IF I DON’T KNOW WHAT I WANT YET?)

I recommend that you book as soon as you know that you are interested in having your florals preserved. Given the level of detail and time that goes into every piece of art, I take on a limited number and cap my bookings every month. But no worries at all if you don’t know which pieces you would like. All you need to reserve your date is a $250 deposit. And you have until a week before your wedding to decide on your main pieces. 

I WASN’T INITIALLY BUDGETING TO PRESERVE MY WEDDING FLOWERS.
DO YOU HAVE ANY CREATIVE BUDGETING IDEAS?

Yes! I love to work with my couples and I’m happy to set up payment plans. As collections aren’t delivered until 4 to 6 months after the wedding, there is plenty of time to space payments, before and after the wedding. I just require 50% before creation begins.

You could also consider adding floral heirloom preservation to your registry! Family and friends are more excited to help you purchase things like unique experiences and art for your home (then say dishes from Bed Bath and Beyond).

Yes! Oftentimes my couples will choose to use the add-on items, such as candleholders, necklaces, or bottle stoppers, as gifts for their wedding party, parents and grand-parents. They also make for easy and meaningful first Christmas post-wedding gifts. Smaller items can sometimes be expedited.

CAN YOU CREATE PARENT OR WEDDING PARTY GIFTS?

Yes! Framed boutonnieres work great in an 8” or 10” square frame and make a wonderful add-on and companion piece to a larger bouquet heirloom.

CAN YOU FRAME BOUTONNIERE FLOWERS TOO?

No problem. I only require that you commit to a $500 minimum order. I am unable to make one off pieces as the preservation and creation time cost is too great. 

WHAT IF I DON’T WANT A CENTERPIECE HEIRLOOM BUT I ONLY WANT ADD-ONS

Nope! I preserve flowers from all kinds of special events - memorials, baby showers, anniversaries, ‘just because’ flowers, you name it.

DO YOU ONLY PRESERVE WEDDING FLOWERS?

Yes! I'm happy to work with pre-dried flowers. I’ll have you send me some detailed pictures or a video, showing me the state of your flowers. With this information, I can share my recommendation, for which types of pieces would work well. If there’s not a lot to work with sometimes I recommend using some filler. In general, you should expect more vintage style/aesthetic for these pieces.

CAN I PRESERVE MY PRE-DRIED FLOWERS?

You should expect a handmade, one of a kind, piece of art. All artwork is handmade with lots of love and care over several months of processes. Given this, you should expect minor imperfections which are inherent qualities of and natural occurrences in any resin art (ie. Minor air, bubbles, a little bit of nature or texture, pour lines visible from the side on open-sided pieces).

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT OF MY PIECE?

Yes! Black is my default color for my resin based work as it fits my style and aesthetic. But I can work with all kinds of colors. White is also a very beautiful and classic choice and would be my next reccomendation.

WE’RE NOT INTO BLACK. CAN YOU USE OTHER BACKGROUND COLORS?
