Let's get this Tuesday off to a stunning start shall we?

I just couldn't resist sharing this shoot with you all, here's why:

a) I'm a bit of a magpie so shimmery, glittery things tend to catch my eye – this two piece, sari-esque gold wedding dress is by Zhavit Tshuba (and we all know how much I adore her wedding dresses!)

b) It was shot surrounded by olive groves and rustic old buildings in the balmy, beautiful, French Provence.

c) Film photography is another weakness of mine – that aura of nostalgia and those delicate, creamy tones get me every time!

Many thanks to Belgium based photographer Gert Huygaerts Photography for sharing these exquisite photos which were taken as part of The Provence Field Trip workshop by Feather & Stone Photography at Le Hameau des Baux in the South of France.

How gorgeous does that model look? Hair and make up perfection if you ask me.

Gert shares a little more about the shoot:

The styled shoot was part of The Provence Field Trip workshop by Feather & Stone Photography at Le Hameau des Baux in the South of France. It was a great experience to work with this fully professional team and shoot this gorgeous dress from a top-wedding designer, all in lovely French Provence. This area leans itself perfectly for working on film as the light is absolutely awesome!

I must say an extra special thank you to Gert Huygaerts Photography for his patience and understanding as I had to reschedule this shoot twice – it's such a pleasure to finally feature the gorgeousness. I'm sure you'll all agree it was well worth the wait!
