An Essex Wedding - January/February 2021 (Issue 96)

81 REGIONAL SHOOT Not just visually stunning, this shoot has some serious green credentials Images courtesy of Beth Dowdell Photography BOH E M I AN British  W ith a vision to create a styled shoot that was both bold, bohemian and quintessentially British, photographer and shoot coordinator Beth Dowdell had to adapt to our “new normal” to pull off this gorgeous collaborative shoot. “The concept had small beginnings, but within a short space of time it grew into something a lot bigger, brighter – and fluffier!” Beth tells us. “Acknowledging the current climate and restraints on the industry, I decided to use small table groupings with lots of detail to fill the space.” Beth carefully considered the environmental impact of the shoot. “I surrounded myself with suppliers that could identify with my sustainable vision,” she says. “Where possible, we used recycled materials, vegan products and local produce.” Not only has this incredible team of suppliers created an absolutely stunning set of images to inspire future couples, but they’ve also shown how you can support the local economy and be as sustainable as possible.
