Helmsley Walled Garden Wedding Editorial - Arabella Smith Fine Art Wedding Photographer, Harrogate, Yorkshire

April 2017 saw Helmsley Walled Garden open its gates to lots of brides & grooms -to-be for an exciting open weekend, showcasing some amazing local wedding businesses. I was lucky enough to be asked to shoot an editorial shoot on the grounds the day before the open day, with the vendors who would be there for the weekend.

The lovely Hannah Sylvester, writer & designer from Brides of Yorkshire, joined us on the shoot to give her readers an insight as to what goes on during styled photoshoots & you can read her lovely article & view her images from behind the scenes here;

I’m always so grateful to be able to work with talented Yorkshire Wedding suppliers & this shoot was no exception. We wanted to create inspiration for all the summer bride & grooms, in-coperating lots of luscious green foliage & flowers (as always, my favourite type!) and creating a cosy luxe atmosphere, proving Tipi’s can be used for chic weddings & not just rustic weddings!
