Join us for our one day wedding photography workshop
set in Brympton House, a breathtaking Grade I listed mansion in the heart of the English countryside.
MARCH 29th 2023
Brympton House is a stunning exclusive use mansion set in the rolling Somerset hills. Full of exquisite period details, quintessentially English gardens, medieval facades and elegant light-filled rooms, this is a venue in an incredible setting that will elevate your portfolio.
This photography workshop has been carefully curated to include not only beautiful floral and styling details, but also the opportunity to develop your skills of how to capture intimate and ethereal fine art couple portraits. There will also be opportunity to work alongside Colette, to ask advice on working with natural sunlight and flash, how to create natural, romantic poses with your couples and tips on capturing heirloom details such as stationery and accessories. An opportunity for a Q&A to answer any specific questions will also be included at the conclusion of the day.
This workshop is open to all photographers who are looking to up-level their business, build their portfolio at a luxury level, and connect with creative individuals in one of the most photogenic venues in England.
BrymptonHouse
An opulent English heritage inspired wedding filled with timeless, heirloom details.
A neutral colour palette of soft whites and ivories, complemented by fresh greenery inspired by the stunning countryside location will form the basis of the florals. Touches of brass and gold will reflect the baroque details found within the rooms of Brympton House to create an elegant and regal style. Our couple are chic and à la mode, but appreciate the history of the location of their wedding venue and as such have incorporated elements of the house decor into their styling whilst also keeping the bridal fashion ethereal yet contemporary.
