Inspiration & Styling

Workshop Artisan organised a magical, dreamy shoot for female wedding photographers at the beautiful Grade 1 Listed Prestwold Hall, a neoclassical style country house set in the heart of Leicestershire that offers exclusive hire weddings. Inspired by the beautiful interior spaces, a palette of peach, gold, pink and cream ran through the styling, flat lays, flowers, cakes and table settings to create a cohesive, fine art styled wedding shoot. In addition to the peach tones and luxurious styling, a beautiful balloon arch of gold and white was created to surround the grand piano and create an incredible focal point to that part of the dining room. Two dresses were used on the shoot, one peach ethereal and floaty by Watters for a very romantic look and one more elaborate lace detail dress by Essense of Australia with an added detachable overskirt by Pronovias, which added a more classical Vogueish look to the shoot. On a cold January day, we were also lucky enough to venture outside for glowy, golden late afternoon sunset shots.

Beauty

I wanted to create a stripped-back classic makeup look using neutral palettes and a glowy natural base to suit the fine art styling of this shoot. I created a textured modern updo to complement the dress that Phoebe wore and a classic sleek pony with an editorial feel finished with a simple headband on Meghan which worked perfectly with the fitted style of the dress. I adore how natural makeup and simple hairstyles can really make for a beautiful classic bridal look.

Dessert Table

For this beautiful shoot, I worked from the brief to create a trio of elegant cakes with a hint of wildness through the climbing sugar roses. The complementary petite cakes and handcrafted morello cherry marzipan treats are a lovely addition to your wedding cake.
