Dove Save the Date

I designed Emily and Robbie's Save the Date postcard this week. I like to creatively respond to the elements I start with. For example, Whitney Carlson of Dove Wedding Photography sent me an engagement photo of one of her couples: Emily and Robbi. The photo is urban with concrete structures in the background, with a splash of an organic element (i.e. dirt). The picture is dynamic with diagonals created from the concrete structure in the background. So I wanted the type to interact with the background--not interrupt it but rather sit nicely within or on top of the background.

Emily and Robbie's colors are raspberry and navy. Good shot Whitney. They look so happy with each other.
