Bringing together golden-age glamour and modern romance, today’s romantic wedding inspiration shoot captures timeless elegance, classic attire, and intimate moments, all with a hint of Hollywood sophistication. Thanks to the thoughtful styling and concept by Gemma from Sub.Subtle Studio and the creative capturing of Maryna Cherednikova, who embraced the moody weather, this editorial radiates an ethereal charm that feels both nostalgic and contemporary.

The main idea behind this romantic shoot was to create an editorial reminiscent of high-end bridal campaigns but with a modern edge.

“Initially, I wanted to work a lot with direct light and use a lot of flash during the daytime to create more complicated compositions, but the day of the shoot turned out gloomy and rainy,” Maryna explained. “That instantly inspired me to change the narrative and use this soft, diffused natural lighting that enhanced the romantic feel.”

The picturesque backdrop of Redleaf Wollombi set the perfect stage. Known for its European-inspired architecture, lush gardens, and ivy-covered walls, the venue added an old-world charm that beautifully complemented the romantic editorial’s aesthetic. The colour palette – full of blush, cream, and baby blues – harmonised with the greens and rustic terracotta hues of the venue, creating a seamless blend of elegance and natural beauty.

The gowns were another standout element, with Moira Hughes Couture providing both a stunning ceremony dress and a whimsical floral gown that captured the essence of timeless femininity. The bride later changed into a minimalist gown from House of Harper, with its clean lines and effortless sophistication. Each look was elevated by the expert touch of Monique Kazokas, who kept the makeup soft and fresh, enhancing the model’s natural beauty without overshadowing these incredible gowns.

The groom, styled in classic suits by Mr Fierze, brought a refined masculinity to the shoot, perfectly complementing each of the bride’s looks.

At its heart, this romantic wedding inspiration shoot is a celebration of connection and intimacy framed by the artistry of an exceptional team of vendors. The muted light, thoughtful styling, and breathtaking setting combined to tell a story of modern love rooted in timeless elegance – a true testament to the magic that can be created when creativity meets romance.
