Good morning! Yesterday’s understated Autumn wedding started this week exactly how I mean for it to continue – with elegance and impeccable style. Filled with gorgeous vintage styling, a little bit of whimsy, a lot of romance, oh and the cutest braided updo you ever will see, I just know you are going to love today’s inspiration shoot “Enchanted Forest.” The ethereal bridal styling, including accessories from the latest collection by Three Sunbeams, sumptuous florals from Butterfly Philosophy and beautiful Autumn light makes this a styled shoot that most definitely lives up to its name!

The beautiful venue for the shoot was Summerlees; an elegant historic property in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales. Its gorgeous woodland and tree lined avenues makes for the most romantic setting and light, a photographer and stylist’s dream. Linda Ngugen from Styled by Linda told me what inspired her vision for the shoot….. “The inspiration behind the styling started with words of romance and mystery. When I think of romance, my heart is filled with warmth and a sense of serenity. When I think of mystery, I see colours that are bold yet striking. For the editorial shoot, I wanted to marry all these emotions and colours together with what Summerlees had to offer with its natural surroundings. Importance was placed on the details and texture, everything was meticulously chosen and some even hand crafted to bring this vision to life.” So sit tight, and soak up the sun and beauty captured by David Duong from We are Origami Photography…….

See what I mean about that braid crown? It would be just perfect for the more bohemian vintage bride! And how delicious do those cake pops look? If you want to see more, take a look at this gorgeous video from La Lune Cinema……

A big thank-you to David from We are Origami Photography, Linda from Styled by Linda, Hannah from Three Sunbeams and the whole creative team for creating such a stunning styled shoot – and for allowing me to share it with you.
