Modern Romance // Hanging Amaranthus and Calla Lilies
Nestled in the scenic hills of Utah, an Italian-style villa became the backdrop for a one-of-a-kind creative shoot. Between the trees of a pear orchard, this venue was the perfect blend of natural beauty and timeless elegance.
This shoot, styled by Taylar Photo, was an opportunity to mentor other photographers on her expertise in natural, elevated documentary photography. We collaborated to create something truly unique, pushing the boundaries of traditional floral design.
One of the standout features was the hanging amaranthus arch. These lush, cascading flowers formed an elegant frame overhead. Draped from natural branches, their gentle sway added a sense of movement and grace. Paired with the sleek, sophisticated calla lilies, we achieved a design that felt both fresh and timeless.
For the bridal bouquet, the robust stems and blooms of the calla lilies were juxtaposed with grassy, organic elements, striking a balance between trendy and romantic.
Embracing full creative freedom, we focused on the interplay between the blooms, which brought a dynamic energy to the villa. The tablescape, in particular, was designed with texture and movement in mind. We used flowing fabrics to mirror the cascading forms of the flowers, pears from the surrounding orchard, and the warm glow of candlelight to create a visually stunning experience.
