Destination Weddings - Creative Styling

Here is one of my favourite Destination Wedding Shoots - right in the heart of the glorious County Wicklow. This is set in the beautiful Wicklow Mountains National Park of Glendalough, a place of great spirituality, peace and history.

EVERY SHEPHERD TELLS HIS TALE UNDER THE HAWTHORN TREE - WICKLOW MOUNTAINS

"She, seduced by the golden light, follows the wind through the fields of barley and wheat, ready to be harvested. She lives imposed in a colour palette of ivory, milk, sage, muted butter, mottled through and through with flowering cosmos and sprigs of blackberries. These tones set off the few treasures that she owns, give depth, and personality. One day she knows the wool she spun or vessel she painstakingly carved will be heirlooms of their own, but for now remain simply true and handmade charms."
