At the start of this month, we shared some inspiration that imagined Beauty & the Beast (the fairytale du jour) as an organic-with-a-touch-of-glam forest fantasy. So it only seems appropriate that as we close out June, we’re going back to the same fairytale, but this time for a completely different imagining of this celebrated story. From a fabulous team headed by Canada-based Sparrow Photography, this inspiration is about high end opulence and luxury, from sumptuous fabrics and dramatic hair and makeup to lavish pillars of roses and a stained glass style cake that is just BEYOND. So sit back and let all your princess wedding dreams come true, because this one is surely fit for royalty!
Here’s some more info from photographer and creative director, Vienna of Sparrow Photography:
I was inspired to create this shoot the moment I heard of the upcoming adaptation of this Disney classic! I have always wanted to capture the love and emotion between Belle and the Beast, and even incorporating all of the special characters connected to this beautiful romance, such as Cogsworth, Lumiere, Mrs. Potts & Chip. Such a beautiful love story I felt honored to capture. The shoot portrayed all the classic bright and bold colours connected to this timeless tale. I wanted to convey a more non-literal portrayal of the story by using a more hip and edgy “Beast” model, while the geometric flooring added a contemporary feel, and the details of the stained-glass cake tell a story all on their own!
