French Country Design Styled Shoot
French Country Design Styled Shoot
The story began when a new event space, Willowbrooke, opened its doors to the public. To kick-start their marketing efforts, they chose to host a French Country Design Styled Shoot, featuring an industrial French chic ambiance that perfectly captured the essence of the venue. The goal was to curate a cohesive look and feel that would complement the structural charm of Willowbrooke, while showcasing the talents of experienced professionals in the creative fields.
This collaboration aimed to produce unique and inspiring visuals that would leave a lasting impression on potential clients and event-goers alike.
Wedding Inspiration
French Country Design Mood Board
The concept of the mood board was characterized by its understated yet sophisticated essence, evoking a whimsical French Country Design aesthetic. A palette of soft blush tones, crisp whites, and warm oatmeal hues served as the foundation, accented with sleek black elements and glass details. The accompanying images perfectly captured the envisioned atmosphere, instilling confidence that, with the right collaboration, the styled shoot would indeed be nothing short of magnifique.
