An Elegant & Charming Anniversary Shoot

Happy Monday Beautiful People! We hope you all had a good weekend and enjoyed the much needed sunshine. We certainly did! With rumours that some sort of lockdown may be happening in the UK, we took advantage of being able to enjoy the last of the summer sun in a beer garden and it was wonderful.

We have a beautifully natural, relaxed, elegant and charming anniversary shoot to share with you all today, captured by Patrick of Studio Balzac Photography and featuring Audrey and Riccardo. Put together to celebrate their two year wedding anniversary, Audrey and Riccardo asked Patrick to create a styled couple shoot that was reminiscent of their wedding elopement as well as being inspired by cotton – the official theme of 2 years of marriage together. Patrick explains…

Inspired by their adventurous spirit, their photoshoot was an elegant and charming affair with the gorgeous South of France serving as the backdrop. The photoshoot took place at the red stones in the well-known location of Trayas, on the French Riviera. Throughout the shoot, you could hear the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks and the smell of the rising ocean mist. Audrey and Riccardo were celebrating their second anniversary and I wanted to recreate their elopement.

We love the idea of organising a couple shoot to celebrate your anniversary. Something that is just about the two of you and the love you have for each other. Audery and Riccardo loved this shoot so much that they have asked Patrick to do next year with the theme of leather. We are looking forward to seeing what they create already!

Patrick shares with us more details on the shoot.

Adventurous Spirit…

Audrey and Riccardo met at a young age. They unknowingly shared a common love for travel which is subsequently how they met, on one of their many journeys.

Inspired by their adventurous spirit, their photoshoot was an elegant and charming affair with the gorgeous South of France serving as the backdrop. The photoshoot took place at the red stones in the well-known location of Trayas, on the French Riviera. Throughout the shoot, you could hear the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks and the smell of the rising ocean mist. Audrey and Riccardo were celebrating their first anniversary and Patrick Hans wanted to recreate their elopement.

The event created such a glamorous spectacle, bystanders were drawn in by the dozens to watch. By the end of the photoshoot, Audrey and Riccardo asked us to be with them every year to celebrate their anniversary to share more beautiful memories.

The couple also asked us to create backdrops to commemorate their anniversaries. This year, the wedding theme was cotton. The colours were muted white, beige, and ecru.

Next year’s anniversary will be a leather themed event and we are confident that it is going to be extremely fun as well!
