Today’s gorgeous inspiration shoot from South African photographer Rensche Mari has a quiet beauty to it that is absolutely bewitching. Loosely inspired by Downton Abbey, this styled shoot is an exquisite ode to all things spring!
Rensche Mari and her team of fabulous creatives know that Downton Abbey isn’t just about the upper class people, it’s as much about the servants. They decided to create a toned-down styled shoot that was more representative of a beautiful and sweet ‘downstairs’ wedding.
From Rensche Mari – “I was so glad that Jana (of Silver Swallow) was there while we were shooting because she suggested we get into the water with that dress – and swoon! It was awesome!”
