Truth be told, winter is a hard season for me. my nomadic coding tells me to stay indoors, bundle up. sleep. rest . eat.....creativity- whats that?

lol

so it seems more effort to get inspired during the winter months. Then i see the purity of glistening snow and the blanket of white everywhere i look....and something starts to emerge. like this white on white "Verailles" inspired wedding shoot.

The feeling of this shoot invokes decadence and indulgence and a celebration of great elegance.

this collaborative wedding shoot is a throw back but but still quite relevant to the modern bridal inspiration of today. all the efforts of this team of creatives showcase a classic modern white on white with bold hints of color and brings to life modern touches. it also captures a period that is reminiscent of old world style. style that will will remain timeless and noteworthy thanks to such iconic and memorable women as Marie Antoinette.

with winter white covering nature as we know it, this is a perfect opportunity to embrace the beauty within such soft subtle colors.

i was Tres' happy to see the final images of this day published in WEDDINGS IN ALBERTA magazine and happy to showcase them again on my blog.

there is opulence shown through out, and with the larger than life styled hair, its a great twist on a stlye relevant to era long gone, but i feel would be Marie Antoinette approved

sincere thanks to the following for this oh-la-la french twist winter wedding collaberation.
