Refined Wedding Photography Inspiration



















We love to share elegant, refined wedding inspiration for our readers. Today’s inspiration shoot actually came together through the collaboration of a stylist, Ginny Au, creating a beautiful scene for the photographer, Brandi Smyth, to grow as an artist. Each and every single detail shown has it’s place–lush florals, simplistic calligraphy, an elegant color palette–but even more than that, we’re showcasing stunning photography inspiration. Each of these bridal portraits or shots of the couple elicits a sense of romance. From a sweet kiss to an excited bride anxiously playing with her veil, we’re sure you’re pinning not just one but each of these images to show your own photographer!

More from the photographer, Brandi Smyth:
“This shoot came together in an effort for me to learn and grow as a photographer with none other than Ginny Au as my teacher. She seamlessly pieced together the details and collaboration with all the other wonderfully talented vendors. I still can’t get over how perfect it was…the navy fabric walls that hugged an upstairs room in an abandoned house, the delicate florals, soft veil. As a photographer, getting to observe Ginny Au create is eye opening; she is effortless in her design and style. The simplicity to her work is a true reflection of herself…natural, simple, pure, & lovely. I learned so much during our time together. Its hard to put into few words what happened over the course of a few days–to me these images say it all, and to Ginny – Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are a shining light in this industry and I loved every minute spent with you.”
