Basic Invite | Custom Wedding Invitations and Save the Dates
Basic Invite is a wedding invitations and save the date company where you can create custom invitation suites. A couple of years ago I created and purchased my own Save the Dates and wedding invitations on Basic Invite. So, when Basic Invite reached out to me to write a post about their wedding invitations I was like, sign me up! I got to style my own invites through their site, and got first hand experience on styling my own wedding invitation suite. I’d like to say I’m pretty much an expert now. Given my self-titled expert status I’d love to share with you 6 of my favorite things about Basic Invite.

"The Last of Us" Inspired Zombie Wedding Photoshoot
Unleashing Undying Love: A Captivating "The Last of Us" Inspired Zombie Wedding Photoshoot
Let me be real for a second, The Last of Us awakened a creativity in me I haven’t felt for a LONG time! I have always been a creative person, I am a full time wedding photographer! But when I was a kid, I used to do these creepy styled photoshoots with my sister. We’d put blood all over a fancy dress. Or turn me or my sister into zombies. We would do different special effects makeup and go to a place that was blooming with flowers and take photos.
I always loved the seeing the differences between this creepy person/blood all over someone and this gorgeous whimsical location, or this beautiful dress. I’ve always loved it. But being a wedding photographer, I kind of had to put that “creepy” aspect on the back burner and haven’t done any kind of photoshoot like that in a long time.
When I was watching The Last of Us, I was instantly inspired to put together a styled wedding shoot involving mushrooms, abandoned buildings, and my favorite…clickers.
My heart is so thankful to everyone who helped me put this shit together. I seriously had my brother and sister in law helping with making little mushrooms out of clay and painting them to go in her hair. It took days and way too much money. Which was very extra of me but they turned out so cute.
And my sister took off time from work to model as a clicker and almost trip and eat shit doing it. And then walking by the highway covered in fake blood. Whicchhhhh I’m glad didn’t get us in trouble.
I spent countless hours going around different cities looking for the perfect abandoned building and last minute stumbled upon this one.
It felt like all my hard work paid off just in time for the season finale. So I quickly went to work editing and I dropped these photos the day of the season finale of The Last of Us on HBO!
This show has honestly meant so much to me and has awakened a creativity in me that I haven’t felt in a long time! It felt like I was tapping into my childhood.
Thank you thank you to everyone who helped with this.
