An Editorial with Leda Anderson Events

As a fine art wedding photographer, I’m always looking for opportunities to create beauty in new and unexpected ways. When I was invited to document this editorial designed by Leda Anderson Events, I knew it would be something special. While reviewing the mood board, I noticed that Leda’s design beautifully expanded the conventional green and white wedding aesthetic.

Green and white are timeless wedding colors—a classic foundation that evokes elegance and natural beauty. However, what I loved most about this editorial was how this classic color palette was reimagined using texture and unexpected color accents. The florals were rooted in soft greens and whites but were complemented by delicate hints of lavender, dusty peach, matte black, and touches of gold. 

It was an elegant way to enhance a familiar aesthetic while avoiding the clichés that can sometimes come with traditional wedding design. The play between light and texture, the delicate florals, and bold details all served to breathe new life into a classic color scheme.

The Art of Film Photography in Capturing Texture and Detail

As a fine art film photographer, my mission is to capture the subtleties that give a scene its soul. The use of film photography for this shoot allowed me to highlight the richness of the textures and the nuanced colors in a way digital photography often can’t. There’s a softness and warmth in the film process that perfectly complements the layered textures and colors, adding depth and a timeless quality to each photograph.

A Collaborative Vision

Collaborating with Leda Anderson Events and the incredible team behind this editorial was a true joy. From the florals to the paper goods to the beautiful models, each element was thoughtfully chosen to evoke an atmosphere of fresh sophistication. It’s a testament to how something as familiar as green and white can become extraordinary when approached with creativity and care.

For couples who want to honor the classic while embracing something new, this editorial shows you can push the boundaries of your wedding design. By adding texture, experimenting with colors, and weaving in thoughtful details, you can transform a traditional palette into something utterly captivating.
