Bridal Look Book For Jasper Garvida

It seemed the world was against us for this shoot. The weather was terrible, the hotel lighting was impossible, even the model didn't turn up.

But pooling our resources, and dragging out of bed our extraordinarily kind and beautiful friend Maria, the Jasper Garvida Look Book shoot went ahead none the less.

Here are just a couple of shots from the day (in between the rain)...

Pandora's Thoughts shoot for Jasper Garvida

We were delighted when Jasper Garvida approached us to shoot the look book and advertising images for his second season of bridal wear.

And with the fates and time against us, we managed to all pull together a shoot, that almost didn't happen!

Having just hosted two days of salon catwalk shows at The Bloomsbury Hotel, we were able to use the hotel for the shoot. After two last minute changes of the model - thank you Maria Tokmakova for saving the day! - and a mid afternoon storm, a fantastic team of people made it possible to capture Jasper's 12 stunning gowns in the luxury environment they deserved.

We will be releasing the official look book images in due course, but for now, here are some behind the scenes images courtesy of Emma Taylor - our helping hand for the day!

Special thanks on this shoot go to: Maria Tokmakova - pro model!, Monica Mao - the most hardworking, patient make-up artist and hair stylist, Jasper Garvida for well - everything!, Emma Taylor - our assistant and general lifter of spirits, and The Bloomsbury Hotel for hosting us.

Studio time with Emma Taylor

Anytime we get the chance, we always try and do a low key studio shoot, just to keep things up to date, and to practice new things.

At the beginning of February, good friend - and Director of upcoming t-shirt company Vanitee - Emma Taylor, braved the snow (remember that?!), to come and shoot with us for what ended up looking like a surprisingly summery shoot!

I think we were dreaming of swimming off the coast of a desert island somewhere...
