A 1930s vintage wedding styled shoot

We love this styled shoot, shot at Pinewood Studios  by the talented Claire Macintrye, for its 1930s glamourous feel.

Heatherden Hall at Pinewood Studios is the most amazing venue. Its dark panelled dining room, high ceilings with twinkling chandeliers and its beautiful gardens, impressive location and the pure excitement that you feel being actually in Pinewood Studios, have, for the past year, left me screaming to produce a vintage style bridal shoot since the moment I found out about its use as a wedding venue.

A bolt of inspiration hit us both, Wallis & Edward. Surely one of the most glamorous historical couples to have graced the planet? And oh so perfect for such a location as this!

Not usually something you look for in a wedding shoot! But we felt that Wallis & Edward, for all their fabulousness, always seemed a little bored and melancholy. At least in their images anyway. The styling, by the way, absolutely was not meant to be era correct.

And as we gear up to the subtle pastels of Spring and Summer weddings,  we thought it fitting to salute and say goodbye (at least for another year) to the hues of gold, red, green, amber and browns that make Autumn and Winter weddings so stunning.
