Creative in Cannes

After a month long family holiday in the South of France, Barcelona, and Helsinki, I’m back to the studio, and feeling more creative and productive than ever. It’s amazing what sun, sand, and sleep will do! It was my first holiday in years, and much needed.

I’ll be catching up with sharing client photos, new designs, featured style shoots ( there’s so many beautiful ones I need to post!) and more in the coming weeks.

Thank you to Visuals by Abbi for the beautiful holiday photos. Abbi is a local photographer in Cannes. We met her at the stunning Villa & Jardins Ephrussi de Rothchild in St -Jean-Cap-Ferrat. Can’t help but be inspired here!

Peace and love,

Hannah

Roma Sunset-Wedding Bells

An ethereal, Italian garden inspired bridal shoot that’s featured on Wedding Bells Magazine.

The Seraphina gown was featured in this golden hour editorial.

It was such a gorgeous evening for a shoot at Campbell Valley Park in the country. Horses and riders were walking back from the trails that go through fairytale woods and fields. We actually had one of the horses model in the shoot! It’s a good thing that model Kelsey is a pro with horses. Such a fun shoot!

Sakura Sunset

A preview of a sweet Sakura editorial with Samin Photography. Featuring a new dress design, the Amaya gown.

Samin found this gorgeous row of apple trees while on a drive to drop off her films at DHL. Most of the blossoms had already fallen by the time they got there but she was able to photograph a sweet portrait session with blossoms.

Au revoir beautiful blossoms💓until the next year.

A lakeside Promise Ceremony -Amber and Muse

Featured on Amber and Muse

It was a joy to create the dreamy tulle Maya gown for this waterside celebration.

From the blog:

Newly engaged couple Katie and Steve knew it might be a while until they could have their dream wedding due to guest count and travel restrictions, so they decided to celebrate this year with a ‘promise ceremony’. Alouette Lake played the part in providing our couple with a local destination that offered the perfect backdrop to their unique and elegant micro event. Wedding Planner Melanie Leung from Keepsake Events created an intimate and meaningful celebration showcasing how a smaller event can be an enhancement, not hindrance, as more time can be spent on the details and creating intimacy.

The inspiration for Katie and Steve’s evening was to highlight the natural beauty around them which they had more time to enjoy together this year. We echoed the calming lake and mountains by focusing on a soft blue and grey colour scheme, which was also reflected in Hannah Tikkanen’s enchanting dress.
