The enchanted garden | Styled Shoot | Taryn Rahl Photography

I was approached by a make up artist from the UK, Ilze Sounes, who was planning a trip to visit family in South Africa for a few days.

Along with a wedding stylist Hayley Howarth, the three of us emailed and chatted on Skype, and together we came up with an idea for a styled shoot.

A fairytale theme inspired from a mix of traditional fairytales.

Fairytales always have that twist between good an evil, so we chose to portray that by using some light flowing wedding dresses on our models as well as some black dresses, which could be for a wedding dress or a bridesmaids dress. Together we chose the two best models to suit our garden fairytale theme and we picked out the ideal wedding specialists in the Port Elizabeth industry to join us…. and what an amazing team it was !!!
