SMBG: Hats Off!
I had a mere ten days to source the props and design the flowers for this royal wedding themed editorial! While the props were fun to style and I had a great time sorting through my friends' and family's collection of tea cups, antique books and dress trimmings, the flowers were my favorite part of the shoot. I designed the flowers with a modern princess in mind. Two different bouquets – one more formal in faded pastels and one more loose, organic and playful made up of Amnesia and Quicksand roses, hellebore, anemones, pink jasmine and ranunculus in royal shades of burgundy, purple and faded pink. I wrapped the bridal bouquet with antique seed pearl beading and incorporated vintage silk velvet leaves in the boutonniere.
