Behind the Scenes: The Vision and Inspiration Behind the Bridal Shoot

When it comes to creating a stunning bridal shoot, it’s all about the vision and inspiration behind the scenes. This shoot is entirely in film, with its beautiful colours and design of old-world charm. For the Cottesloe Civic Centre shoot, the goal was to capture the romance and elegance that the venue exudes. I wanted to showcase the beauty of the architecture and the enchantment of the gardens with fine art photography.

The vision for the shoot was to create a dreamy atmosphere that would transport brides-to-be to a world of romance. I carefully selected various dresses, and accessories, to complement the venue’s charm and create a cohesive aesthetic. My photography style is inspired by film, which creates a romantic and timeless story.

The inspiration for the shoot came from the venue itself. The stunning architecture, lush gardens, and Seabreeze provided endless inspiration for me. I wanted to showcase the natural beauty of the location while also infusing their own creativity and style into the shoot. Overall, the vision and inspiration behind the Cottesloe Civic Centre bridal shoot were to create a breathtaking showcase of the venue’s charm and beauty. I create images that would inspire brides-to-be and help them envision their own dream wedding at this magical location.

My Experience as a Professional Photographer

As an experienced photographer, I would be delighted to offer you a helping hand when it comes to planning your wedding at Cottesloe Civic Centre. Here are a couple of tips you may want to consider.



For your ceremony, I highly recommend choosing the Secret Garden if you’re holding it in the afternoon. The location offers limestone stairs, and its shady atmosphere combined with its exquisite gardens creates a truly magical ambience. Additionally, opting for this spot ensures more privacy as the gardens are open to the public and the Main Lawns always has people passing through.



The beauty of Cottesloe Civic Centre extends beyond just one location, as there are many other enchanting areas perfect for capturing stunning bridal portraits. As the sun sets and casts a warm glow on the venue, the atmosphere becomes even more romantic.

If you’re interested in having beach sunset photos, please note that parking can be challenging during peak seasons. The sunsets happen quickly, so if you desire a beautiful beach sunset on your wedding day, I can help you create a well-planned timeline. Let’s make sure we have enough time and a suitable location to make your dreams come true.
