As we wrap up another week at SMP, we decided to go out with a bang. A jaw-droppingly gorgeous bridal shoot bang, that is. Inspired by the beauty of Swan Lake and brought to life by Coco Tran and Vo Floral Design, this gallery of images is just waiting to be devoured one by one. Oh, and in case that’s not enough we’ve got the week’s lucky winners down below. Happy Friday!
From Coco Tran… Reminiscent of the Swan Lake’s lace & beaded bodice, this gorgeous gown Paolo Sebastian was the inspiration for this editorial. My vision was to create a ethereal, soft, and beautiful imagery that reflected the look of a Swan Lake ballerina. The colors of blush, beige, and blue along with the soft flowy tulle layers, and beautiful florals complemented each other very well.
Because the dress has a much softer look, I wanted to add a little bit of contrast and drama to the model’s eyes. The winged out dramatic eye makeup made the Swan Lake inspiration apparent. The location I chose was Sutro Bath in San Francisco. It was a calm and foggy day in San Francisco. The broken down brick architecture of the Sutro Baths was the perfect touch to add a little character and tie in the overall look of this editorial.
