This my friends, is how you make beer beautiful. Yes, you heard me right. Belgium beer is the foundation of this chic photo shoot by Michael Ferire, with rich florals by Wild Flower Fairy and stationery by Ante Scriptum, transporting a brewery into a wedding wonderland. With Art Deco touches, the space becomes moody and romantic, and this gallery will make you view brews in a whole new light.
From Michael Ferire… This inspiration shoot is a joint project of Michaël Ferire, Aurélie Sculier of Ante Scriptum and Mélanie Pierson of Wild Flower Fairy. After being brought together on a wedding (Aurélie’s wedding actually!), we realised that our three styles really came together. The way we seek authenticity, our love for the handmade, and our craftman’s souls matched perfectly!
As this shoot was destined to travel out of our borders, we wanted to use one of our other common trait: the fact that we are Belgians! We imagined this 100% Belgian shoot together by completing the team with talented local vendors and designers.
Belgium, being a land of contradictions, we were guided by a wind of refined rawness! The raw and industrial side comes mainly from the venue that is part of the old Bellevue Brewery and is now used as an event location, with beer as our threadline. We chose to add the refinement of Art Nouveau and Art Deco references as we encounter these influences daily in Brussels. These evocations were made through the colours, shapes, touches of gold. The whole shoot has a moody atmosphere with very contrasted lighting and the warm feeling of fall.
