EMMA PILKINGTON

Notan, Bridal Editorial

November 6, 2023

Inspired by Notan, our fashion forward bridal editorial was a fusion of minimal Japanese design with couture fashion seen on the catwalks. Featured on Rock My Wedding.

We wanted our shoot to have a luxe haute couture feel, giving fashion conscious brides inspiration for their day. With a table setup inspired by the decor of luxury fashion events such as Dior.

Jean Jackson Couture created a bespoke pink brocade dress for the shoot, alongside some of their beautiful stockist’s dresses including Rue de Seine and Rish Bridal. Fashionable accessories by Megan Therese and Victoria Fergusson completed the look, with natural ha†ir and make-up looks by Sarah Morten. Finished with some gorgeous Bella Belle shoes.

WHY we're the perfect match

WE ARE SOULMATES

I photograph weddings for couples who prefer a relaxed yet beautiful style of wedding photography. My unobtrusive style enables me to capture the special moments & genuine emotions of the day. I pair these documentary style images with beautifully styled fine art fashion portraits & detail shots, to create a series of images that tell your unique wedding story in those most elegant way that I can. I enjoy working with natural light as much as possible, so that the images of your special day look exactly how you remember them.

My fine art approach, and use of soft natural light and a warm pastel colour palette, allows me to create fresh and luminous photography.

I focus on the intimate and sincere moments of your wedding, creating images that tell an honest and genuine story that will last forever. I will not just document the ceremony and the formalities, but those extra little moments which will give so much pleasure in years to come.

My style is for the romantics, the daydreamers & the lovers of the beauty of timeless simplicity.

"HER WORK IS STUNNING. SHE MAKES BEAUTIFUL USE OF NATURAL LIGHT."

"What can I say! Emma was just incredible throughout our day...she's captured moments we didn't even realise anyone had noticed.

Her work is stunning. She makes beautiful use of natural light and our whole album is so bright, airy and clean just how I wanted it. The end result is just the most perfect album which captured not just moments but actual emotions too.

From the bottom of our hearts - thank you so much Emma, I'm so glad we found you! xxx"

"Emma captured our wedding day perfectly! So many amazing shots to choose from, from our styled photos to our natural ones and all the little touches and scenery - they are incredible. Emma is so lovely and professional and she made us feel at ease even when we at our most nervous before the wedding. She even helped me in my final moments to make sure I was ready! She went above and beyond for us and all our guests have commented on how gorgeous the photos are. We can’t thank her enough"
