I’ve been a long-time fan of the gorgeous calligraphy from Mara at Neither Snow – and I’m thrilled to finally be featuring her work today!  As you’ll see below, Mara’s calligraphy combines haunting romanticism with a modern sensibility for an absolutely beautiful result:
{this bookplate was commissioned by a brother as a gift for his sister! Â Lettering by Mara, with printing by Woodside Press}
{Mara collaborated with Colleen from Cleanwash Letterpress on this black and white wedding invitation}
Mara has been a teensy bit busy lately, having just recently graduated from grad school, packed up her house, and has spent the last couple of months traveling around India and England! Â In addition to the commissioned pieces above, Mara’s work has been featured in the most recent issue of Martha Stewart Weddings and she’s currently in the process of revamping her already-beautiful website. Â But in the meantime, you can check out Mara’s blog for other recent projects, and hopefully we’ll see more of her work back here again soon!

Her calligraphy is beautiful and looks even more amazing letterpress printed! Just wanted to chime in and let you know that the invitations in the last two photos were designed by the bride Rachel Polizzi- I only did the printing!
