ABBEY ELAINE PHOTOGRAPHY // About the Photographer Abbey Elaine Photography is a full time wedding photographer, couples photographer and hype woman. Abbey’s main goal with her work is to not only deliver great images, but an experience filled with connection and most of all, heart–creating images that are authentic and that fully represent her couples both inside and out. Abbey loves when her couples feel open and comfortable enough to be vulnerable, laugh, cry and tell stories in front of the camera and believes that this feeling along with the connection she creates is how you produce the most epic images and the ones you want to view for a lifetime.

The WeddingDay Magazine cover shoot was such an honor to be a part of as it brought together the many talented folk that reside and work in our small town of Crawfordsville, Indiana. It challenged us to go beyond the small town feel and bring to life big ideas. It’s always an amazing experience working alongside the WeddingDay team as they give us the platform to showcase those big ideas and the go ahead to create art!

motivation was our best friends. They had struggled with infertility and the Christmas my daughter was born they found out they were expecting. That moment capturing their baby announcement photos was the flipped switch of my passion for capturing moments so intimate and meaningful that I knew I didn’t want to do anything else." is your business background?

WD: What What skills should we know about? in the industry about AA: "I15 started years ago working my way

through college as a day of coordinator and event planner. I always loved photography, due in part to my grandfather being an event and wedding photographer in the 80s and 90s. I eventually kept doing gigs until I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Business. I picked up a camera about two years later, started taking workshops, capturing landscapes and friends' kids while working on my master’s degree in Business Marketing." owner, what do you WD: Asstrivea business to accomplish? What should

potential clientele know about you?

"In every facet of my business my goal is to make this an easy process.

The booking should be easy, but there should also be tons of information for the planning and getting to the day of. I really strive to help in any way I can. Between vendor referrals to bustling a dress before the reception, we are the time clock and the ones that capture every detail of the day.

That as a photographer this job isn’t just about pretty photos—it's also about the relationship to the clients and their families."

AA:

you get the chance to know their people, you know the couple more and you become like family. I’ve had such great chats at the end of the night from parents of the couple or their bridal party folks!"

tips would you give your WD: What clients? What are the best tips you

have for the big day?

"Make sure to work with your photographer on your day of timeline.

It's something I start working on with every couple after booking. You need to know how your time is going to fall throughout the day for all your vendors, but your photographer knows how much time they need for photographing each portion of your day. All photographers see your day differently, so the time they need/want is also different. Always clearly explain and lay out where you see value in your photos. Are you going to be a bride who loves having tons of details? Your photographer will need to know that. It also helps put you at ease to know your plan for booking the rest of your vendor team like hair and makeup!"

AA:

I have made some of the most amazing friendships through my time in the industry!" are the important questions WD: What that couples should be asking when

shopping for a wedding photographer?

"Ask for full galleries! You want to know your photographer can handle all aspects of your wedding. But also take time to look at the photographer’s portfolios. Make sure you’re happy with their work, how they edit but also how they capture your day! Find out what their process is for backing up your images. Are they doing it immediately after your wedding and are they backing them up in multiple places? And finally, ask them about their turnaround times so you know when your images will be ready!"

frequently. There are so many venues, in just our state, that many times we haven’t had the chance to. The best answer though is how the photographer is going to ensure they can cover your day. From providing galleries that are similar to your venue, or understanding why you chose it in the pre-booking process, really allows us to understand the aspects of the venue that are important to our couples. If I am in the area to a venue or it's close to my home base, I actually set up a tour of the venue if I haven’t photographed there. I meet with the venue coordinator so I know the ins and outs of the space!"

I’m excited to start teaching them all the things I learned the hard way on. Using my business degree and the vast knowledge of social media and marketing, I want to teach a course on Instagram. I also want to focus on the clients who have come to me for years and enhance their experience."

THE EASIEST GUIDE TO changing your last name

AFTER THE WEDDING

Y

our newlywed bliss can quickly come to an end when it comes time to endure the dreaded task of changing your last name.

The legal process can often take the romance out of taking your significant other’s last name. If you get yourself organized with the proper documents, the process can be less strenuous, allowing you to continue to revel in your newlywed happiness.

1.

GET THE ORIGINAL

3.

APPLY FOR A NEW LICENSE

5.

UPDATE YOUR BANK

Getting a new license from the local Bureau of Motor Vehicles office requires a few documents, namely your old license, the original marriage license and your new Social Security card.

Remember to change your address if you have moved after the wedding.

The easiest way to do this is to visit your local branch in person.

Take your new license, your marriage license and your new Social Security card, and ask for your name to be changed on your account. Request new checks, debit cards and credit cards with your new name.

2.

REQUEST A NEW SOCIAL

4.

CHANGE YOUR LAST NAME

6.

UPDATE YOUR LAST NAME

If you visit the Social Security Administration’s website, you can find an application for a change of name here. This is a free service. Print the application, fill it out, and include any required documents. You can either take your application to a nearby Social Security office or mail it in. You should receive your new card with your new last name in approximately 10 days.

When your new Social Security card comes in the mail, meet with your HR manager at work to switch your name over. This includes payroll, 401k, your insurance benefits, stocks etc.

MARRIAGE LICENSE FROM THE CLERK’S OFFICE The original license should come from the clerk’s office where your license was filed. One should automatically be sent to you a couple weeks after the wedding.

The original document should have a raised seal and your new last name. Also, it’s a good idea to request copies.

COVER SHOOT

THE BEST MIDWEST WEDDING CITY 2020 A Crawfordsville Cover Shoot with M odern Bohemian S tyle 70

WEDDINGDAY

THE VENUE The rustic atmosphere in this downhome Crawfordsville wedding venue is one-of-akind! Vanessa notes, “Hidden Hollow is one of the premier venues in Crawfordsville, making it an easy choice.”

This open and picturesque barn has enough indoor space for you and your guests to celebrate. Step outside to the fields and hills surrounding the barn for a quick escape into a natural setting. With both indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces, the opportunities for this venue are truly endless!

ABBEY ELAINE PHOTOGRAPHY

THE VISION This town might be small, but the ideas and hearts are big!

Crawfordsville, Indiana took home the prize of being named the Best Wedding City of 2020 in WeddingDay's very own contest last year. The locals rallied together to show their love for their hometown, bringing us to this quaint town to host this exclusive cover shoot. The team of local award-winning vendors were excited to share their love and talent for their hometown of Crawfordsville. “We pulled inspiration through local vendors and their aesthetics,” says Crawfordsville wedding planner and florist, Vanessa Rische, owner of Copper Jade Events & Design.

Vanessa and the team wanted to incorporate some West Coast trends to showcase a few unique details you normally wouldn’t find in a barn wedding. Captured by Crawfordsville photographer, Abbey Elaine Photography, this cover shoot pushes the boundaries to create a Southwestern “Modern Boho” barn vibe you won’t find anywhere else.

WEDDINGDAY 71

THE LOOKS These models flash a humble romantic look that is perfect for a small town with a big heart. Vanessa says, “We wanted to echo the effortless feel of bohemian in the brides’ hair and makeup.”

From soft curls to elegant updos, Crawfordsville area wedding hair and makeup salon, Lavender & Hops Style Lounge, showcases an enchanting variety of boho styles. Local bridal salon, Jessica’s on Main, perfectly paired these models with a wide variety of dresses and styles, showcasing the diversity of boho and body types. The moody bridesmaids’ dresses tie into the shoot’s color scheme for one whole, bohemian bridal look.

THE FLORALS The muted tones of these blooms, created by Copper Jade Events, draw on the delicate side of rustic romance. The aesthetic totally captures an organic Southwestern vibe. Vanessa explains, “We based the color palette around the barn and the natural beauty of the surrounding nature. I used a lot of dried florals like pampas grass and palm fans to get the bohemian feel we were going for.�

THE DÉCOR From light blush plates and modern golden flatware, this table setting holds classic elegance with a touch of whimsy. The small details—such as the tinted glasses, colored candles, and overflowing dried bouquets—provide the perfect intimate atmosphere for any reception. Looking to add a little local love to your lunch? The charcuterie display incorporated into the tablescape by Crawfordsville wedding caterer, The Juniper Spoon, was entirely Indiana grown. The rentals and linens, provided by Copper Jade Events, make the ideal boho wedding, indoors or out!
