Blame it on the recent Lilac Festival or the sweet scent of lilacs drifting into my office, but for throwback Thursday I’m featuring one of my favourite spring blossoms.  Kari and Derek’s Gatsby-themed engagement session took place right in the middle of lilac season and we took advantage of the abundance of blooms.

For more lilac ideas, here’s a picnic wedding shoot as featured on Wedding Chicks, if you’d like to see.
