There are some days when everything just seems to come together: The flowers for Anthony's Bridal Show arrived on Thursday with our regular shipment. The design studio was lush, with blooms in every container on every shelf. The fragrance from the lavender and sweet peas filled the air. Sarah began to create the bouquets incorporating our new design philosophy and signature colour way: Hues of blush, stone, mushroom, ivory and silver with hints of lavender. It was soft, feminine, romantic.
Amanda popped in to collect the blooms for our regular Friday's flowers feature and saw the beginnings of the boutonnieres. "We should do a photoshoot", she said. I am not too sure who looked more horrified - Sarah or me! We were petrified that something would happen to the flowers, out in the sunlight for hours, and then we wouldn't have anything for the show. Which is how I got roped in.
What a fun afternoon. Amanda persuaded Jadiyah to model along with Weldon. We explored Amanda's garden, chasing pockets of sunshine. As the afternoon light began to fade, the rays lengthened across the garden, falling between the fronds from the palm trees.
I can't wait to see all the images from the shoot. Can you? They'll be featured in a separate blog post later this week.
