‘Sweet Somethings'

Thank you for sharing your beautiful styled shoot with us Tyneale Makeup Artist

Styling Theme: Ethereal and Whimsical surrounded by blooms

Brief: ‘Sweet Somethings’ celebrates a moment in time and is bridal inspiration for those who love to be surrounded
by greenery and fresh blooms. This ‘moment’ is your last moment to yourself before stepping out on your Wedding Day to begin your forever with your chosen one, the one who sets your soul on fire.

Shoot Story: The journey our shoot began planning long before COVID hit and was unfortunately post-poned due to the onset of the pandemic. As a shoot team we used this down time to further plan and adjust the shoot we had visioned. It evolved into what you see captured in the images – to feel the emotion of anticipation through the elegance. The greenery and blooms are like little smiles. I can’t express in words just how excited the creative team was to get together and finally have our ‘moment’.

Emily of Poppy and Sage Photography was our Shoot Director/Planner/Photographer and has a wonderful ability to
involve the full creative team through her process – nurturing the coming together of all the talents and of course capturing the magic.

Entangled Events was our beautiful venue with living green styling by Entangled Living. This venue was magical, perhaps what it would be like if Alice in Wonderland were a real place.

George Wu Couture’s gown and our Model, Mercy were the perfect pair. Fitted but flowing gowns with so many intricate details. Mercy was right at home in her own wonderland, in a fabulous gown by the name of “Farnesiani Dress” surrounded by blooms. [Appliqued French laces with hand created French tulle trim and Swarovski crystals.]

As the Hair & Makeup Artist I loved being able to work so closely with Nadja of Le Sans Souci to create a wearable bloom hair piece – I’m going to call it ‘Bloom Work’ like art work… we discussed the hair style I had in mind for Mercy and I let Nadja’s imagination go! On shoot day she bought me the pieces (3 panels to fit within the hairstyle) and right there I created the placement and pinned. It was perfect. The Blooming Umbrella and Hat were further Bloom Work by Nadja.

Blossie created our Stationery – the quote she has chosen to feature was just perfect. Her inspiration was classic minimalism but with subtle details and would look wonderful framed on the wall as a little reminder that even in the tough times Love still wins.

Ekaterina of Ekats Couture Cakes created a 4-tier pastel pink Cake draped with hand crafted wafer blooms. What is whimsical without a sweet something?
