Kelly from Found Collective and Lydia from Stemhaus wanted to create a romantic, elegant and Tuscan Wedding feel for this ‘Secret Garden’ Styled Shoot.
They engaged with Sebastian Paynter early on in building the concept as they knew his style of photography would be perfect for the shoot.
Seb really wanted the shoot to take on an editorial feel and was keen to get a gown that had movement to accentuate the romantic feel of the shoot, so they decided to collaborate with Couture Love Madness featuring their ‘Rose’ Gown with hundreds of laser cut organza petals.
Kelly was struggling to find a venue that would be the perfect backdrop for their shoot vision when she stumbled on Danielle Syme’s (Photographer and Influencer) Instagram page where she shares her recently (and exceptionally beautiful) renovated historic 150-year-old home in the Adelaide Hills.
She reached out and Danielle agreed for the shoot to take place there.
With a soft and romantic colour palette of white, neutrals, pops of pastel blue and lush greenery, Danielle’s home was the perfect backdrop to create this modern and elegant Tuscan Wedding vibe.
