Rooted in restraint, structure, and tonal cohesion, this editorial with Koko King was created at Le Cer in Montreal as a study in modern bridal styling.
Designed with a focused palette of ivory, layered greens, and muted lilac, the shoot demonstrates how intentional styling and strong creative direction can elevate bridal imagery beyond trend-driven aesthetics and turn it into art.

The Team
Koko King designed a concept that was modern, high-end, and perfectly tonal.
Taryn Miller brought a refined, effortless touch to the makeup, soft and present.
Caroline Schmitz sculpted a sleek bun that felt polished.
Chora Design Floral, a Montreal based florist, created arrangements in ivory, green, and muted lilac that read like poetry in petals.
Sinders Bridal provided a gown that was simultaneously sculptural and fluid, setting the tone for the entire editorial.
Frederique from Next Models, modelled it all with ease, presence, and a quiet confidence in front of the camera.
Each decision supported the same visual direction: structure, and presence.
The slicked-back bun emphasized neckline and posture. The florals added tonal depth without overwhelming the frame. The Piper by Wona Concept gown introduced architectural shape and movement.

Ivory acted as the base tone, creating consistency across fabric, florals, and interior space. Layered greens added depth without overpowering the frame. Lighting set the dramatic mood on set creating shadows on each ruffle of the train.
The gown, Piper by Wona Concept was sourced through Sinders Bridal, carried architectural presence. Clean lines and sculptural shape allowed posture and silhouette to lead the composition. Hair by Caroline Schmitz was styled into a slicked-back bun, emphasizing neckline and bone structure. Makeup by Taryn Miller remained refined and intentional, supporting the strength of the overall direction. Florals by Chora Design Floral were placed with precision. The arrangements reinforced the palette and composition.

Le Cer provided an architectural backdrop that supported the editorial tone. Its clean walls and dimensional light allowed shadow and structure to exist naturally within the frame.

The shoot was photographed entirely on digital, allowing for precise colour balance and clarity within the controlled interior lighting. The consistency across frames preserved the depth of the ivory and green palette while maintaining clean contrast.

Editorial work like this strengthens the foundation of how I approach Montreal weddings. It sharpens attention to silhouette, colour discipline, and collaborative direction with creatives like Koko King.
