A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to work with local jewelry designer Nathalie Antonelli of NLD Designs. Her work is gorgeous y'all! Just take a look:

She asked me to put together a lifestyle shoot to show off her jewelry. And I thought, "Nothing says lifestyle like a girls' night picnic at an abandoned old farm!" Fortunately Nathalie had a lot of faith in me and my vision, and was gracious enough to see it through. Plus, there was wine...

Oh and food. There also was food. The girls all loved wearing the jewelry, and talked about how light and comfortable it all is. Nathalie hand makes every single piece, and she truly is a master at her craft!

It was a fantastic experience all the way around! These ladies were all so sweet and fun to work with! Between them and the gorgeous pieces they were modeling my job was pretty darn easy. Plus, there was wine. Wait, did I mention that?

Seriously though, Nathalie's pieces are stunning. If you like what you see, you should definitely check out Nathalie's work on her website, or just go straight to her Etsy shop.
