Nothing Gold Can Stay

Updated: Sep 19, 2019

Nature’s first green is gold

Her hardest hue to hold

Her early leaf’s a flower

But only so an hour

Then leaf subsides to leaf

So Eden sank to grief

So dawn goes down to day

Nothing gold can stay - Robert Frost

This is my first attempt at a styled bridal shoot. A collaborative effort between myself and some very talented young women. Sadie Bosworth, an amazing designer - who I interviewed for the Get It magazine last year, provided her gorgeous wedding gowns and Rosemary Smith of Mothworks, a makeup artist, stylist and flower arranger, assisted in making the shoot such a success. Chantal Rowe was the hairstylist on the day. The location for the shoot was an old abandoned estate house in Salt Rock, it set the perfect mood for the kind of images I have been wanting to experiment with for some time. Something a bit more moody, dark and mysterious.
