For the Illume Retreat styled shoot, I wanted to incorporate our color palette of blush, grey, white with pops of copper throughout every detail. And thanks to the ladies at Taudrey Jewelry, I was able to incorporate those pops of copper in such a unique way! These custom copper cuffs engraved with special references to the retreat were an element I got to carry with me throughout the shoot – literally. I loved getting to showcase not only their incredible handiwork, but also these heartfelt little details into every facet of the shoot!

Handmade with love in sunny Miami, the Taudrey collection features personalized pieces for statement jewelry that is as unique as the wearer. Whether you’re adding your loved one’s name to a necklace, a special geographic coordinate on your bracelet, or picking up a dainty initial necklace, the ladies behind Taudrey have something for you.

For the Illume shoot, they created two beautiful cuffs out of solid copper for me to wear. One is inscribed with the name of the retreat, and the other has the coordinates for Austin, TX stamped on them. In so many senses, the Illume Retreat is simply an extension of my heart, and being able to literally wear such large pieces of my heart on my wrist makes my little heart leap for joy!

To all the fabulous ladies at Taudrey, thank you so much for working hard to create such thoughtful, personal pieces for the Illume Retreat shoot! I am blessed by your generosity every time I wear one of these heartfelt pieces.
