Beautiful luscious dresses, velvet coats and romantic scarves.
Champagne and the most delicioius grain free crumpets, strawberries and whipped cream.
A quiet cove with curly trees and curvy rocks.
A gathering of incredible women at dawn.
This weekend took a magical turn when my lovely friend Madelyn Mulvaney invited me to shoot photos of a gathering of women, the photos to be accompanying a couple articles she is writing for some of our favourite magazines (from Stampington of course).
We got up at the crack of dawn (literally….like 5 am) and drove south to just outside of Bellingham to this beautiful beach. We set up our picnic, got dressed up in luscious clothing, cracked open champagne, savoured the incredible crumpets Jennette had made for us and shared stories. Then before I knew it, it was time to head home…my camera full of hundreds of photos for the article and the whole thing felt like a dream!
While I will definitely share more photos from this amazing picnic at some point, I thought I’d share a few of the ones captured by my iPhone during those beautiful morning hours.
A BIG highlight was meeting the wonderful Jennette who I had met online 2 years ago when she took You are Your Own Muse. Getting to meet people I’ve gotten to know through their self-portraits is beyond incredible and I only wish it hadn’t taken me 2 years to get to meet her in person!
Almost all of the props and styling in this photoshoot came from her magic. She also runs a shop called Smashing Rubbish and she is truly a goddess of props and set design…she has a total gift.
Totally honoured to get to join in on this beautiful dreamy morning!
