EVERGREEN ELEGANCE

INTO THE GARDEN
When we first met Claire, her highest priority was to have an
outdoor wedding and she had set her sights on the lovely Italian-
style gardens at the Evergreen Museum & Library in Baltimore.
This venue proved to be the ideal setting to showcase her timeless
style and celebrate all things summer in each of the thoughtful
details her guests enjoyed throughout the weekend. Flags on top

reception and see that your dreams
of the tent, a touch of "hydrangea blue" in the florals, black and have become a reality.

white accents, and a vintage car, were on this couple’s wish list.
All captured beautifully by photographers Michael & Carina, this — PA U L H O M S H E R , G R O O M —
tented affair was filled with love and laughter from start to finish.
Nodding to the couple’s resident state of Texas and the bride’s love
of all things equestrian, Claire chose an elegant gown by designer
Austin Scarlett, of Project Runway, with a dramatic horse hair skirt.
Paul, a U.S. Air Force Captain and B-1 pilot, looked dapper in his
official dress uniform. Described by the bride and her mother as
a "simple, elegant, and timeless celebration," these thoughtful
touches (and a few margaritas) proved to have everyone on the
dance floor!

THIS MUST BE THE PLACE
F O R M F O L L O W S F U N C T I O N I N O U R C R E AT I V E S T U D I O
#SBHQRENO IN WOODBERRY
The studio, affectionately known as SBHQ, sits in a historic building alongside I-83
which was originally built as a paper mill in 1877. Since that time, it has also been
both an ice cream cone factory and a commercial envelope manufacturer. Five
years ago, it became home to the SB Team. Starting off with a few small desks and
a fresh coat of paint (Farrow & Ball’s ‘Pink Ground’), SBHQ opened its doors! Now
home to a few more work stations, several more coats of paint, an expansion, and
not one, but two puppies, 1750 Union Avenue, Suite A is "the place to be".
Unsurprisingly, creating an inspiring workspace for the team, as well as a separate
space to host clients, was an important part of the brand’s continued growth. The
aim of this eclectic space is to inspire creativity as well as showcase artwork that
provokes and motivates their creative team.
The renovation began with a plan to install larger windows and new light fixtures.
Moving a few walls to create a more spacious design library and additional
office space inevitably led to a full office renovation. An open-air workspace
allows for a collaborative environment which made differentiating between the
client presentation space and the internal workspace even more important.
Eventually, a client lounge, wet bar, and full bathroom rehab were included with
the conference room redesign to further create a comfortable and inviting space
for client presentations.
The studio hosts various types of clients from brides and their families to corporate
clients, home owners, and to business owners alike. The lounge was intentionally
designed with feminine and masculine elements to appeal to the studio’s various
visitors. One of the rooms’ highlights is a breathtaking photograph by Runa +
Holly that hangs above the settee in the lounge. The delicate nature of the flowers
contrasts highly with the deep shadows of the background, creating a dark, yet
inviting composition.
During the construction, an unplanned, but fortuitous visit by award-winning
artist Kelly Walker of Baltimore Artstar led to a design collaboration on the
conference room wall. A neutral palette combined with the ethereal mountain-
scape draws ones eye up towards the 17’ vaulted ceiling. It is in this space that the
team begins their design process and the large-scale mural provides the perfect
backdrop for creating custom experiences. Walker and her design army were able
to bring the walls to life fully achieving the ‘anything is possible’ vibe the SB Team
conceptualized.
Each of the spaces in the studio is unique, yet all work in tandem, allowing the
team to continue to design well and thrive.

Based in beautiful Gisborne, New Zealand,
Runa Kuru, originally from Iceland, and Holly
Tong a NZ native, are the two women behind the
self-titled brand.
Their individual focuses of photography
and floral styling respectively, inspired their
combined interest in interior design. With
the desire to have fanciful pieces on their
own walls, this collaboration between friends
bloomed naturally.
Their first collection of large-scale prints
was launched in 2017 with great success.
Since that time they have put their former
individual careers as a portrait photographer
and florist on hold as they work together on
this inspiring collaboration. Their second
collection was released earlier this year and
their work has been admired far and wide.
Their image "Volucris" was selected as one
of the 25 exhibited photographs in the 2018
international art awards, Arte Lagune Prize, in
Venice, Italy.
They are passionate about quality pieces that
remain classic and valued for many years to
come. Their artworks are printed in very limited
editions of just ten or twenty prints in each
size with a total of four sizes available. Each
piece is printed with archival inks on German-
made ‘Hahnemühle’ 308gsm cotton rag paper.

Walker is a self-taught artist in a
"perpetual state of challenging art
mediums." She loves utilizing a wide
range of atypical materials to create
intricately layered surfaces that reflect
and express her mood and emotions.
While her work is often spontaneous,
using land, sea, and cityscapes as
inspiration, she loves happy accidents
and believes that submerging herself
in her work takes her where it needs to
go. Her decorative painting and fine art
works can be found throughout the US
and abroad and she is willing to travel
wherever the job takes her. "I want to
make the world a more beautiful place
and I put my soul into all of my work and
I am blessed to be in an industry where I
do what I love and love what I do."

MAKE YOUR MARK
"It has been seven years since the first live runway show hit Harbor East," said Mayor Pugh,
"and this year’s event was one to remember!" On April 28, 2018 models took to the Harbor
East runway for a full day of fun, fashion, and YES, even an engagement!
With just a slight breeze and an A-list model team, our male and female brand ambassadors
rocked an elevated runway showcasing the hottest trends of the season, while backstage our
production team was preparing for what proved to be a crowd-pleasing proposal.
Our groom, Aron Huie, said, "The reasoning behind proposing at the FashionEASTa 2018
Fashion Show had everything to do with our own personal love story. We met at the same
type of runway show last year (Aisle Style 2017) and the team who produced the show also
made our happy meeting a possibility. Stephanie Bradshaw and the wonderful group at
Baltimore Bride are responsible for bringing us together, and we are so excited we were able
to share our engagement with the whole city of Baltimore in the same place we met. Our
wedding is scheduled for next spring and naturally the SB Team is helping us plan the event!"
When we asked Ashton, our now bride-to-be, how she felt about the surprise proposal,
she responded, "In that moment, it was like the weight of the world had been lifted off my
shoulders. My heart was racing, my hands were shaking, and I couldn’t help but cry. My legs
went weak and I fell to my knees. We leaned on each other under the weight of the emotion I
remember thinking, ‘I hope he doesn’t try to put the ring on, my hands are shaking too hard.’
Then he said the words ‘Will you marry me?’ and in that moment the crowd disappeared and
all I saw was Aaron."
With record breaking crowds gathered on the streets of Baltimore’s fashion district, this
event had a little something for everyone. A huge thank you to Baltimore Magazine and all
involved in the continued success of this community-wide event. Who’s ready for 2019?
“ Year after year we turn to Stephanie Bradshaw and her
dedicated team to help pull off our signature “FashionEASTa”
fashion show. It is tremendously reassuring to have such trust
in the SB team’s professionalism and attention to detail ...
