Something Ginger, a Bridal Beauty Collective

Every bride knows that on her wedding day she needs a few special touches to make her day that much more special, from something borrowed to something new. But this year, there’s a unique kind of tradition for brides to add to the start of their new chapters, Something Ginger.

Founded by long time gal pals and ultra talented hair and makeup artists, Diana Rose and Kata Baron, Something Ginger is a bridal collective based out of Albuquerque, NM that aims to provide a unique wedding day experience for every bride out there. With a focus on inner and outer beauty paired with a whole lot of fiery girl power and positive vibes, this squad is looking to not only make brides beautiful, but to spread self-love and confidence to every person they cross paths with this year.

We were beyond excited to be a part of this styled shoot at Terese Romero’s dreamy downtown studio for Something Ginger’s launch this past December. Everything element of this bridal session was absolute perfection, from Terese Romero’s iconic black wedding gown to Darling Details’ velvet chair to our model Maria’s natural elegance to, of course, the beauty expertise of Diana and Kata!

These ginger babes are about to bring a whole new energy to New Mexico and beyond, can’t wait to see all the beauty you lovelies create. Cheers to Something Ginger, truly the start of something wonderful!!!

Wedding Inspiration - Non Traditional Wedding Gowns

If you know one thing about our little wedding team its that we’re complete suckers for all the gorgeous bridal details. One of our favorite trends we’ve been capturing more and more are unique, non-traditional wedding dresses. Whether its something as simple as selecting a blush-tone or cream dress to a more modern two-piece wedding gown (either of the matching and mix/matching set variety) to a super non-traditional caftan gown, there’s something out there for every bride wanting to shake it up on her special day. Move over pure white wedding gowns, we’ve rounded up our favorite, spot-light stealing gowns that are anything but ordinary.
