Colorful Styled Bridal Shoot at Flamingo Springs
Photographer: Lissa Chandler + Lauren Blair
What Is A Styled Shoot?
“A styled shoot is simply a collaborative effort of multiple creatives who put their talents and resources together to create a stunning visual concept to be photographed.” (from this article) I often get inquiries from photographers, event coordinators, or event venues asking for a florist to collaborate on styled (photo)shoots.
Sometimes there is a vision for these shoots and other times I have total creative liberty to design whatever I want. Sometimes I’m offered compensation for materials/time and other times it’s a volunteer opportunity. I decide whether I want to participate based on my availability, the amount of material/time requested, and how I feel about the creative vision for the shoot. I enjoy these shoots because they are opportunities to flex my creative muscles as a florist, try new design styles or techniques, and work with other wedding vendors in the community.
This Styled Shoot
For this shoot, Lissa of Lissa Chandler Photography, reached out to me for a bright, unique, cascading centerpiece and bouquet for a bridal styled shoot. After seeing Lissa’s Pinterest inspiration boards, I was excited to create something fun & unique. I think you’ll agree that the flowers and photos turned out beautifully!
What Did I Use?
For this bright, cascading bridal bouquet, I used garden roses, fluffy peonies, hanging amaranthus, dendrobium orchids, astrantia, pink tree fern, and Italian ruscus. I love the funky retro charm of this shoot with the model’s voluminous pink tulle dress, sparkly ombre stilettos, and the vibrant backdrop of Flamingo Springs Trailer Resort. Isn’t this shoot SO fun?!
We’d love to make your floral vision come true! Press the button to schedule your consultation.

Everything about these inspiration photos just exudes fun and I knew I wanted to be a part of what Lissa was putting together!
