This monochromatic beautiful editorial from powerhouse duo film photographer Sara Donaldson and stylist Pearl and Godiva is so perfectly evocative, I'm thrilled to have such a work of art grace the pages of Wedding Sparrow today. With fluidity and high fashion, this inspiration showcases how an eye for fashion and how people move can really make your images perfect. A good wedding photographer will be there to capture moments that another photographer will overlook. They know how to anticipate beautiful moments like these and to be patient in their wait to document the unguarded. They’ll capture the beauty, the drama, they’ll tell your story the way they know how. They have an eye for creative details – the beautiful table settings, a hand written note from your fiancé on the morning of your wedding, the song that was playing while you prepare with your bridesmaids.

From Sara Donaldson: "Set in a 1700s Georgian home in the heart of Dublin, Ireland, this editorial plays with the idea that movement can depict emotion. When directing the posing, my vision was to showcase the physical embodiment of fleeting thoughts, and the entangled web of complex emotions between a couple. The setting includes a crumbling statue of Apollo, which is fitting: Human movement creates sculptures only visible for a millisecond. I believe that it is the artistry of a photographer to capture the millisecond that speaks the loudest within each moment. I am so incredibly grateful for this editorial team … we melted right into a beautiful flow that was just as magical as the space."
