‘Hidden Eden’

When the paths of our mind and dreams met the  wild almost primitive beauty of this gorge and the surroundings, we were almost immediately certain about what we were going to create. An inspirational styled shoot focused on the magnificence of female nature.

In such a scenery, our interference, had only one way to follow. It was that of the sophisticated and luxury styling without exaggeration. The complete harmony with the imposing lines of the landscape has undertaken to make excellent elements of elegant, vintage, boho chic leading us to an eclectic styling in the set, while the colors we used following the water and rocks were dusty blue, light grey, peach and white in combination with gold material.”

The photoshooting is divided in two parts, one of the boudoir session and the other of the bridal. In the first part, the bride is getting prepaired, reading the letter of her love, waiting to meet him. Have been seating in a vintage armchair, she is wearing a white body combined with a maxi transparent dress, expressing her lonileness and anticipation to finally see him.

During the bridal session, the bride is wearing an elegant bridal dress consisted of a silk skirt embroided with lace pieces and a top, made by tulle, embroided also with French lace, pearls and little crystals. She is captured in a square shaped arch, on floor, near the river with the spectacular view of the gorge as a natural backdrop. The half part of this arch is consisted of flowers  creation while the rest one with high candles. In this point, we wanted to use the four elements of nature: water, earth, fire and air in order to emphasize the bride in the middle in a mesmerizing way. The primitive elements of nature meet the primitive feelings of passion and love.

Then follows the meal of the two in the form of a sweet brunch which was placed in a floating structure that we created in one vault of the bridge, creating a warm retreat for the couple like a small cave. The arch was decorated with an impressive macramé structure, offering a stronger sense of isolation of the two, but also underlining the fragility and complexity of sharing love between two people. For the table setting were used elegant combined with minimal elements with unpretentious styling. Dishes with a stone effect, scattered small flower bottles, towels embroidered with macramé elements and golden details were combined to welcome fresh fruit, pancakes and sweet tarts.

The Stationery suite had been inspired also by the magnificent landscape. We made use of handmade papers and calligraphy method , combined with the natural colors of the surroundings  engraving the gorge with watercolor  elements. They were also used handmade ceramic items to intergrate the natural effect.
