Monet’s Garden Inspiration

We all know how much I love watercolors, so when Anastasia of Anastasia Marie sent over this Claude Monet-inspired bridal shoot styled by Short & Sweet I was very excited! This magical, mossy, wooded setting is amazing inspiration for a bridal shoot. I love how they incorporated Monet’s watery pastels into not only the flowers, but the invitations and other decor as well. Oh, and um…how dreamy is that dress?? Love. Gorgeous photos by Daniel Usenko in such a dreamy and beautifully styled setting.

we heart your comments!
  1. The pastels are lovely in this shoot, along with the brides dress. It is gorgeous!! Beautiful shots, and the photographer captured the poses just wonderful. Great job!

  2. The watercolor theme goes great with the latest ombre trends!

  3. The photographer did an awesome job juxtaposing romantic elegance with nature’s beauty – especially love the shot of the bride “knocking” on the cottage door. And the vignettes tell such a lovely story. . .

  4. so pretty…

  5. Once again, thanks for this great feature!

  6. This is a beautiful inspiration shoot! I love the contrast between the mossy, woodsy greens and the watercolor shades of pink, purple and cream in the flowers!

  7. I instantly thought the dress was whimsical and lovely, however none of the shots shown here really give us a good look at it! Is it Pattis Bridal Fall collection in the style Juliet?

  8. The pastels are great in the setting!
