A Hampshire manor house played host to this feminine photo shoot. Photographer Tasha Newland of Ikonworks is here to share all the inspirational details behind this beautiful Four Seasons photo shoot so you can recreate it for your own big day.
“Our aim was to create something pretty and feminine and being able to use one of the finest wedding venues in Hampshire was an absolute highlight. The Four Seasons is a restored Georgian manor house, blending English country living with 21st-century luxury, perfect for weddings. The abundant light available ensures that, as a photographer, I am able to relax and enjoy shooting stunning images effortlessly.
Inspired by the stately rooms, accessories from Emmy and Tilly Thomas Luxe and the beautiful ‘Azura’ Alan Hannah bridal gown created a refined look with a feminine touch. The soft gown supplied by Boo Bridal floated effortlessly, offering the perfect pairing for the whimsical flowers supplied by Paula Rooney, whose reputation for excellence and innate eye for detail mean her bouquets become romantic works of art. The flowers were delicately styled to continue the elegant and pretty theme.
Hair and makeup artist Sharon ensured the same feminine charm translated into model Sophie’s hair and makeup, choosing a pretty pink lip colour to complement the warm tones in the dress and flowers. The overall makeup look was natural with a gentle shimmer effect.
An extraordinary hair piece from the Tilly Thomas Luxe ‘Ritz Goddess’ collection completed the look, capturing the elegance of the venue and providing the perfect accent to the beautiful Emmy shoes.
Designer and creator of the most incredible cakes, Unique Cakes by Yevnig provided the show-stopping cake for the shoot. Decorated to perfection, it featured the most delicate and perfect sugarcraft flowers and looked exquisite against the backdrop of Georgian architectural features, exactly as we had requested.
This shoot gives brides-to-be inspiration to combine a pretty, airy, feminine style often reserved for barn or rustic weddings with a grander setting. The delicate details soften the grandeur of the venue and accentuate its character features, all while taking full advantage of the light and bright interior for some truly unforgettable photos.”
