Vanguard is a word creatives in our industry are always striving to embody, and when Wedluxe came to us with this theme for a styled shoot we knew we had to push outside the box. Our Art of Amadeus shoot is a visual symphonic ode to the musical genius of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and the opulent beauty of his beloved city, Vienna.
Antique gold décor and soft pastel blooms set the tone for this trendsetting shoot. Our lush floral table runner acted as a bed for a stunning crystal chandelier, while beautiful arrangements and candelabras at varying heights framed the scene. Pastel hued blooms of roses, ranunculus and sweet pea added a soft romantic feel to the table while the custom backdrop designed by So Pretty In Print added the final touch to the beautiful space at Hart House.
Venetian and musical influences were sculpted into the tiniest of details, from the grand backdrop to the dainty sweets and cakes created by Nadia & Co. Vanguard was still the true influence behind every move we made, through hanging cakes and the romantic boudoir scene with beautiful floral soaps created by Bare Naked Soap Co. Our creative limits were pushed, allowing us to design something beyond words.
We could not have put this shoot together without the help of all the amazing creatives involved.
