Dasha + Lesha

“Shades of Summer” – Russian Fairytale Wedding

The wedding of Dasha and Lesha is a true fairytale. From the design of their wedding to the pictures, when I first took a look at this reportage I felt like I was 10 again immersed in the Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Except this is no Alice in Wonderful wedding theme; it’s the own couple’s universe, created for the very purpose of their day. I have no doubt it’ll have the same effect on you, and though I would like to comment on every moment of their day that was captured, I’m not gonna spoil this one, and all I’m gonna say is: Enjoy! Photography by Olga Plakitina, out of Russia.

The word of the organising team.

Some brides want for their wedding bright, juicy shades; many dream of romantic pastel pink, some need a muted pale blue, while others cannot live without the pristine white. But Dasha wanted a completely different palette for their day, filled with only expressive, deep shades of summer. As for our team, we think it worked! Color determines the individuality of a person, fills their aura, gives the necessary feeling pleasing the eye. Dasha and Alex will remain sunny – yellow, smiling and family. We have tried to make as much expressive living elements for the design of their celebration: ripe pears and apples on the tables, iridescent vases for flowers, candles and colored motley sweets. The impression that everything is happening at the front porch of a small garden, home and family, summer and languishing in the heat of the natural area.

A Russian Photo Shoot with Goats

I have to say I am not a big fan of styled shoots in general—gives me an impression of “fake dreamy”. But there was this little something about this one… I don’t know, looks kind of offbeat to me. What do you think? Photography by Nadia Koldayeva, out of Russia!

Nadia called this session “Arónia Melanocárpa”, which is Russian and has something to do with black berries, used here as decoration! The session took place in Grebnevo, at the ruins of the noble estate near Moscow.
