Moody Mauve and Blackberry Inspiration Shoot

photography by Sarah Hannam

Intimate, romantic and moody— this shoot planned and designed by Willow and Oak has us feeling all the autumnal feels. The editorial is set at the time-worn Asylum Chapel with patina and layered texture abound. Vintage sensibilities and a palette of deep tones of mauve and blackberry melted with softer hues of lavender, rose and oatmeal bring the chapel overgrown with ivy and wispy grasses to life. The color palette weaves through the florals by Bloomologie, stationery by Isidore & Augustine and stunning cake by Claire Owen Cakes and photographer Sarah Hannam was on had to capture the magic in the diffused, light filtering into these beautiful images.

Old World Tuscan meets Autumnal Hues

featuring Lynn Dunston

This European-inspired shoot brought a little bit of Tuscany to Santa Ynez, California. With its limestone architecture, terracotta tiled roof, and sprawling vineyards and olive trees, Sunstone Vineyards and Winery was the perfect setting to evoke that Old-World Tuscan feel. Stylist and planner Lacy Geary incorporated designs with lots of texture with a neutral, yet rich, color palette. Plume Calligraphy introduced the look with layered, hand-touched designs and Idlewild Flora created artistic and organic designs using dried elements for the staircase and lush floral arrangements for the tablescape and bouquet. The high fashion styling and textural, romantic details are the epitome of the modern bride and all the inspiration is captured to perfection by the incredible Lynn Dunston.
