T
he inspiration behind the shoot was the beauty and wilderness found in the Welbeck Estate itself ” says Kate Teofilo Sanchez, owner and stylist at ‘What Katy Does’. “I opened my new studio here earlier this year and I’ve been captivated by its history and the enigmatic stories it holds. There’s a natural beauty and an amazing landscape.’ Katy’s love for organic, handmade and natural styling mixed with the energy and artistic flare of her co-collaborator, Andrew Acford, photographer at A Big Neon Glitter, meant their theme of ‘Bohemian Wilderness’ was a perfect collaboration of talents. “We wanted to create images that captured the Proustian-like memories of the Estate’ Kate explained “in all its splendour and wild beauty, with modern styling and clean lines. I love working with seasonal, available and abundant hedgerow flowers and foliage, creating willow work and using natural materials and the newly constructed Hazel Gap Barn is the perfect backdrop for this style. With its mix of exposed history and modern comforts and with the help of some fabulous local suppliers and crafts people I think we’ve created some beautiful imagery to inspire the wild at heart brides who want to embrace the natural bohemian vibe.”
