A Collaborative Day of Elegance at Romsey Bridal Boutique
In December 2024, I had the privilege of joining a wonderful collaboration at Romsey Bridal Boutique, where we brought together an exceptional team to showcase the artistry of bridal beauty and photography. The day was nothing short of magical, featuring two fabulous models who volunteered their time to highlight the exquisite gowns from Romsey Bridal. The event was a celebration of creativity and professionalism, allowing each of us to refine our skills while demonstrating the outstanding services we provide.
Stunning Dresses from Romsey Bridal Boutique
Nestled in the heart of Romsey, Hampshire, Romsey Bridal Boutique has been fulfilling brides' wedding dress dreams for over 20 years. The boutique is renowned for its warm, welcoming atmosphere and its wide array of luxurious gowns. As a premier stockist of the Maggie Sottero label, Romsey Bridal offers exquisite dresses from all three of their collections: Maggie Sottero, Rebecca Ingram, and Sottero & Midgley. In addition to their stunning dresses, the boutique boasts a beautiful selection of bridal accessories, jewellery, and veils to complement every bride's look. Their dedicated team ensures each bride’s journey to finding the perfect dress is as magical as the wedding day itself.
The Artistry of Abby and Ruby
Our collaboration also featured the incredible talents of two experts in bridal beauty: Abby of Bridal Hair by Abby and Ruby of RubyLouBeauty.
Abby has been a hairstylist for over 18 years, and her expertise in creating timeless and elegant bridal hairstyles shone throughout the day. Her passion for hair styling, combined with her ability to tailor each look to the bride’s unique features, made every style she created truly breathtaking.
Ruby, an award-winning makeup artist and the creator of makeup magic, brought her extraordinary skills to the shoot. Her journey in the beauty industry began with a childhood fascination with makeup, which grew into a career marked by excellence. After training at the Catherine Taylor Makeup Academy, Ruby has specialised in bridal makeup, soft glam, and full glam. Her accolades include being a regional finalist for “Wedding Makeup Artist of the Year” at the Wedding Industry Awards and receiving “highly recommended” recognition at the UK Hair and Beauty Awards. Ruby’s work has graced Love Island and TikTok stars, as well as an Olympian’s wedding morning. Her commitment to staying on top of trends and continuously improving her craft is evident in every flawless look she creates.
Behind the Lens: Stephen Baron Photography
As the photographer for the day, it was my pleasure to capture the beauty, creativity, and joy that unfolded during this collaboration. At Stephen Baron Photography, I specialise in capturing life’s special moments, from weddings and family portraits to branding and event photography. My goal is to provide not just images, but timeless memories that reflect the essence of each occasion.
This event allowed me to blend my love for photography with my commitment to showcasing the talents of others. Working alongside such skilled professionals and capturing the intricate details of the gowns, hairstyles, and makeup was an inspiring experience. Outdoor shoots are among my favourites, but this day proved that the magic of collaboration can transform any setting into something extraordinary.
A Day of Learning and Growth
This collaboration was not just about showcasing beautiful bridal styles; it was also an opportunity for us all to refine our skills and learn from one another. From experimenting with lighting and angles to observing the meticulous artistry of Abby and Ruby, the day was a testament to the power of teamwork and shared passion.
If you’re planning your wedding or looking for inspiration for your big day, I can’t recommend the services of Romsey Bridal, Bridal Hair by Abby, and RubyLouBeauty highly enough.
