I studied some art history in college and fell head over heels with the Dutch masters. I would stare and soak up their work for hours, eager to learn all I could about them. And this styled shoot, inspired by their work, is no different. It has that classic elegance and rich color palette that draws you in… and doesn’t let go. Audra Wrisley captured every purposeful detail and pretty moment and you can see them all in our gallery right this way!
From Audra Wrisley… The 17th century is known as the Golden Age in the Netherlands; a time in which their fast ships conquered the oceans, and brought an incredible wealth to the young republic. The intricate, moody works of Dutch master painters like Rembrandt and Vermeer also gained infamy during this compelling period, and this served as inspiration for our shoot created to excite the most classic souls.
Castle Oud-Poelgeest, a historical venue that traces its roots back all the way to the 1300’s, served as the backdrop for our lady in waiting bridal shoot. We couldn’t help but immediately fall in love with the impressive scenery paintings covering the ancient walls in the main room, paired with a stately fireplace mantel in the center of the space. The elegant table setting and floral design were inspired by the beauty of the Dutch still life masterpieces, which blended seamlessly with the tones scenes in the large canvases. We paired the transcendent French lace bridal gown by Sibo Designs with an endless veil, and completed the look using a delicate hand-painted hair accessory.
