Inspired by the opulent charm of Bridgerton and the grandeur of their castle location, wedding photographer Amy Davies envisioned a unique shoot blending maximalist and gothic elegance.
She drew on the expertise of the UK’s top alternative wedding suppliers, including Rock n Roll Bride favourites, Rosie Red Corsetry and Photo Press , who designs custom wedding newspapers.
She was also super inspired by their model couple’s own personal, gothic style. “Gothic couples don’t only have to wear black!”, she told us. “Erin and Louis looked iconic in every outfit, we wanted it to look like they were in their own castle and I’ve not seen anything else like what we’ve created before and I’ve basically completed Pinterest!”

I am very much having a goth moment. So much so that the shoot we did a couple of weeks ago for our September/October issue was goth-inspired (watch this space!) So when this 'smoky gothic' shoot winged it's way to me, I knew I had to feature it.

A Very Non Wedding: Whit & Colby

As a girl who's more than slightly obsessed with weddings and photography, there's pretty much nothing more thrilling to me than discovering new (to me) wedding photographer that is INCREDIBLE. It doesn't happen very often, but when it does I feel like I've won the wedding-blogging-lottery. And don't even get me started on what happens when I discover a videographer with as much talent as this. Actual tears people, there were actual tears.

I love this shoot because it shows that goth doesn't always have to be black, black and more black. A splash of colour here and there can really work - yes, a colourful goth wedding is totally possible!

Harnaam Kaur has polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which meant she started growing a beard from aged 11. Battling to remove her hair every day, and bullied at school, she started to self harm and considered suicide. Harnaam is now a body-confidence and anti-bullying activist and she fully embraces her unique look and hopes to encourage others to do the same. So when this bridal shoot using Harnaam as the model was submitted to me I nearly jumped out of my skin with excitement!

Time travel. Steampunk. Victoriana. Turn of the century industrialism. If you love any of these things then you're going to die over this shoot, sent over from Ireland by the fabulous Chemistry Photography.
"We put together this shoot with an amazing crew of 20 creatives including designer Alice Halliday (she's the glowing goddess who designed Florence Welch's infamous cape), Pearl & Godiva (styling genius and vintage hire guru), and rockstar make-up artist Kathryn O'Neill (she rocks the wedding world and all the Irish mags)", photographer Kait told me.
