The Sister Biz

If you haven't heard me mention it already (fat chance) my sister is a creative genius.  She has the voice of an angel: check it out, I'm not kidding Valery Gore  AND she takes amazing pictures Kings + Queens.  So it only makes sence that we combine our creativity for a couple of stylized shoots this past year.  I have combined all three into an ode to the Gore girls Enjoy!

This series of pictures was shot in Valery's veggie garden as we wanted a very organic feel to them.  My cousin Kim was our lovely model.  Kim's bouquet was a mix of grey echiveria, brunnia and begonia foliage, yellow craspedia clematis seed heads and asclepias.

The next shoot was our picnic inspired theme.  Val shot my fav new Lush image for our brand seen above.
We shot this series of pictures down on the waterfront in Toronto.  Our good friends Linda and Jordan were our wonderful models.

Jordans boutonniere was a mix of crabapples, elderberry, echiveria blooms and dusty miller foliage.  Linda's bouquet was created using elderberries, piano garden roses, red brain celosia, echiveria blooms, dusty miller and heuchera foliage and finished with tulle in turquise and aqua.

I had to re-post the following images as well as some new additions of a shoot we did in the early spring.  We chose a retro literature theme filled with bold colours.

Jessica's bouquet was filled with poppies, craspedia, hellebores,  ranunculus, kangaroo paw and podophyllum foliage.
