Icy Floral Winter Wedding Styled Shoot
SNOWBIRD/CLIFF LODGE, UTAH
Photography:
As I started designing this shoot, I was heavily inspired by the work of Japanese artist Kenji Shibata and his series of florals frozen in ice. I wanted to emulate that beautiful juxtaposition he captured, soft romantic detail set within the strict silhouette of a harsh material, by pairing the striking mountain vistas and minimalist concrete architecture of Snowbird with a rich and textured palate. “Spring in ice” became the guiding theme of the designs, while a venue that is perched at the very top of the mountain helped us to solidify that dramatic tone - one of only a select handful in the world.
It was in this sky-high space that I was able to collaborate with an incredible team of vendors and artists to bring the vision to life. From a hand-embroidered silk gown that RMINE’s made exclusively for the shoot, to the depth of Artisan Bloom’s floral, Atelier Azure’s stationery, and BBJ’s linens, we wanted the richness of color and texture to ground the palette and establish a sense of place in an otherwise vast snowy local. Between the bright white background that offered such an elevated canvas and the deep strong colors that balanced it out, our Snowbird shoot came together as a unique collaboration of which we are all proud to share.
