This vibrant styled shoot, brought to life by the talented Rhea Rodrigues, was set against the stunning backdrop of Mechanics Bay, with the city skyline and ferry wharf providing the perfect canvas. Inspired by the legendary Frida Kahlo—renowned for her self-portraits, nature-infused works, and bold use of color—the shoot seamlessly blends her iconic style with a contemporary wedding aesthetic.
The two exquisite gowns featured in this shoot each capture a unique facet of Frida Kahlo's artistry. Jakarta by Forget Me Knot embodies the bold, modern spirit of her work, while Lily by Rebecca Ingram reflects the natural, floral elements so central to Kahlo’s art. Complementing these gowns are two stunning veils: Our timeless Mantilla Veil, radiating elegance, and the dramatic Kalani Veil, a floral masterpiece that channels Kahlo’s signature love for nature.
This styled shoot is also featured on Bride & Groom's website, which you can find here.
