Love Bridal Boutique – Bridalwear shoot, Styal Lodge, Cheshire

 

14 photographers, 1 videographer, 4 models, hair and make-up artists, a ton of beautiful dresses and the wonderful setting of Styal Lodge …

When photographer Jonny Draper invited me to join him and an amazingly talented group of friends from around the North West to shoot the bridalwear for new boutique, Love Bridal that he and his wife Emma Draper are soon to open, it was easy to say yes – I knew the day would be fun and creative!

Love Bridal Boutique will be opening its doors in Bowdon, Cheshire, this coming week and will feature dresses by designers including Terry Fox, Alan Han­nah and Intuzuri. Emma and Jonny have been working in the wedding industry for many years and have so much experience advising brides in their roles as bridal bou­tique man­ager, make up artist and wed­ding photographer, that you are sure to receive a first-class, luxury expe­ri­ence here. (You can read more about the boutique in this interview with Emma.)

Here are my favourite images from the day.

 

 

I’m so honoured to be involved with such a great group of photographers who aren’t scared of working together and sharing ideas – it’s really inspiring. Thanks Jonny, Neil, Anurag, Sam, Lucy, Hannah, Adam, Alex, Emma, Laura, Pete, Liam and Tom.  Here’s a wee behind the scenes shot of them all hard at work:
