Fashion and fantasy go hand and hand in our latest photoshoot ‘Enchantment' shot on location at Parkanaur Manor House and Forest Park.
We added a little sprinkle of fashion fairy dust to our models who embodied the spirit of flower goddesses and forest nymphs.
Fashion Designer Una Rodden created a version of one her peach silk couture gowns specially for the shoot with yards and yards of flawless silk in the skirt for utter fashion decadence. Worn by Style Academy model Julie Doherty it was the perfect first shot of the day - with the mid day sun lighting the scene and a perfect breeze billowing out the sumptuous silk. The gorgeous vintage head pieces worn with Una's couture dresses are all from Dream Jewels in Moira.
For the forest scenes we created room set-ups with fabulous furniture from Derrys Furniture Emporium - with our burly (!) photographer and assistant hiking the pieces halfway up a hill to the perfect location.
The models were driven in 4x4's from the prep room at Parkanaur Manor House through the forest park and still had to hike up a hill to our perfect location, deep in the forest.
The boudoir scene features vintage and antique trinkets from Dream Jewels vintage in Moira, and clothes by Candy Plum, Hillsborough.
Our tree angel Catherine complete with feathered wings watched over our vintage bride in a supercute strapless dress with layered chiffon skirt from The Boudoir at The Linen Green.
Lizzie Agnew's couture wedding dresses are draped across a chaise longue in a clearing filled with pretty buttercups. Christina spotted a tiny frog in the undergrowth and scampered off to catch him - unfortunately for Christina the little froggy wasn't an enchanted Prince but it certainly made for a fun photo!
Christina got all wistful and romantic as she stepped-back-in-time a vintage 1950s wedding dress from Raspberry Beret and this time her pre-planned frog Prince kiss was a silver-jeweled trinket from Willo.
