Lady Dinner

September 29, 2014 Julien Garman

A few weeks ago, I was asked photograph a friend’s dinner party at her beautiful DC row house. At the mention of tres leeches cake, I couldn’t say yes fast enough! 

The result was just stunning. Mariella of Splendor Styling did an incredible job styling the scene. Candles everywhere, flowing champagne, the prettiest table setting and the most delicious meal prepared by my good friend, Jessica with Adventures of a Repatriate. While I couldn’t eat the chicken (#vegetarianproblems) I definitely had an extra piece of cake at the end to make up for it. 

Big, huge thanks to Carlis of Spicy Candy for being the brainchild of this fun dinner - we were lucky to have our dinner sponsored by Bookalokal, this awesome site connecting people who love dinner parties! If you’re looking to plan a dinner party and need a little help, I’d highly recommend them! Violet Boutique loaned us a few dresses and She’s Unique dressed us in their prettiest jewels, so even the photographer got to feel like a princess that night!

I’ll quick talking and get to the good stuff! Feast your eyes (see what I did just there) on a few of my favorite snaps in our latest lookbook collaboration, Lady Dinner, above.
