English Coastal Elopement Inspiration , Beachy Head Sussex

Over the summer I filmed a beautiful coastal elopement shoot at Beachy Head in East Sussex England. The white chalk cliffs and views are so picturesque and a stunning backdrop for this dreamy elopement.

Photographer Madara created an elegant and romantic vision embracing nature with delicate textures, muted tones and minimal styling. The combination of the Jesus Peiro gown, wide brim hat and flowing veil created a feminine and stylish look.

The tablescape was styled with a luxurious feel of flowing fabrics, romantic calligraphy and antique glassware. The hints of blush pink, blue and white from the florals tied in with the natural elements of the sea. The stunning bouquet from Coco Rose Flowers brought a fresh and romantic vibe and our real couple Katie and Ben brought this shoot to life with their relaxed, warm and friendly nature.

I hope this English coastal elopement shoot inspire couples to embrace nature and be bold with different elements. This shoot is featured on The White Wren blog.

Sally Bean Bridal Couture campaign film, Bodleian Library

My first shoot post lockdown was a very special one. It was for Sally Bean bridal couture and her new Falling Flowers wedding dress collection, which would filmed at the prestigious Bodleian Library in Oxford. Sally wanted a fun and upbeat campaign film, showcasing her gorgeous dresses she created in lockdown. It was amazing to work with an talented team and film Charlotte, who looked like a goddess in each gown!

Sally’s skill, creativity and vision for each handmade dress is awe-inspiring, from delicate silks and lace with varying styles and shapes they were a dream to film. To see more of her work you can see our exclusive feature on Rock My Wedding.

Wild Hearts, Emma Beaumont wedding dresses, bridesmaid inspiration, Secret Garden Kent

A special part of a wedding day is the bond between the bride and her bridesmaid and maid of honour. Wild Hearts was a shoot inspired by female friendship on a wedding day, set in the gorgeous glasshouse at The Secret Garden in Kent. Makeup artist Aston created the shoot together with beautiful styling, florals and props from Bohotanical and Boho and Bloom props. There was lush greens, wild pampas grass and dainty glass wear. The girls all wore elegant white dresses from Emma Beaumont, which accentuated their beauty and added a modern and classic look.

Elegant & cosy winter wedding inspiration, Dream Capture workshops

There is something very magical and special about Christmas Weddings - the lights, the festive spirit and all the cosy vibes. I recently attended a Dream Capture Workshop run by Rebecca Carpenter and Nataly J and it was the Pinterest Winter Wedding set up of dreams! The shoot was held at the White Finch Bakery in Kent and was beautifully styled by Holly from Locate To Create. There was lush greenery, candles, a gingerbread house cake and all the plush and cosy finishing touches. The setting was very elegant and cosy, the perfect mix for a festive Winter Wedding with so many beautiful details from the suppliers below. It was great to have 2 couples for a mix of bridal and lifestyle content. Thank you Dream Capture Workshops, I was really inspired by this shoot and I hope you enjoy the video of this elegant and cosy winter wedding I created!

Modern Chic City Wedding, Carlton House Terrace London

I recently collaborated on a wonderfully chic and modern city wedding shoot for Kate Edmondson bridal wear. The editorial was held at Carlton House Terrace in central London and it was the perfect elegant setting. The venue has large beautiful, light and airy rooms with a gorgeous balcony.

Kate had designed three bespoke dresses, each one unique and feminine and modeled beautifully by Anastasia. The designs were modern, high fashion and perfect for a city bride.

Lianne from Blonde Army styled the venue with a neutral, elegant and minimal palette with accents of toffee and sage. The styling complimented the neutral florals from Catherine Short floral design.
