Our styled shoot for The Wedding Scoop: Love letters from a beloved

Thursday 15 October 2015

'Love Letters from a Beloved' takes a reflective and introspective look into the emotion of love, told through a collage of words & beauty. The storyline is inspired by a collection of quotes from classic poems by Leo Tolstoy as well as modern-day writers like Tyler Knott Gregson. The visual theme is inspired by the true modern bride - exuding an effortless elegance and intimate sensuality. Her makeup is soft and subtle; her hair is loose and flowing. Exquisite lace and textured details of her gowns are contrasted with fresh nails and bare feet. Floral arrangements are wild and free.

Equally effortless is the style of hand-lettering I've chosen - an organic freehand script written in brush, with a slightly unpredictable rhythm. Watercolour patterns were created through a careful mixture of digital and traditional mediums, complementing each photograph to form a compelling visual story.

Through 'Love Letters from a Beloved', we hope to bring back the beauty of studio wedding photography. Sometimes, less is more and there is beauty in simplicity."












And, a sneak peek behind the scenes for original concept boards we were toying with before finally deciding on marrying everyone's favourite parts (pun intended!)...

  5. Hmm it seems like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new to everything. Do you have any suggestions for first-time blog writers? I'd really appreciate it.

  6. Hi! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog. Is it tough to set up your own blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I'm thinking about creating my own but I'm not sure where to begin. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? With thanks

  7. Good day! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site? I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had problems with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
