Photo Submissions

Would you like to see your photography on Borrowed & Bleu? So would we!

Borrowed & Bleu only accepts exclusive submissions: weddings and other photo sessions that have not been published on other blogs. We love detail-centric weddings that are unique, feature DIY and handmade elements, vintage style and more!

We also gladly accept styled and inspiration shoots and bridal showers. We only accept a very small quantity of engagement sessions with the aforementioned unique qualities. Preference on engagement sessions is given to our Bleu Ribbon vendors.

Borrowed & Bleu is an exclusive editorial partner with Two Bright Lights, and we recommend using the service to streamline your submission process.

  • Detail shots are a must!
