I’m sure you’ll agree that this moody and emotive wedding editorial by SILVER & SLATE is utterly stunning! Overflowing florals by EVERGREEN FLOWER CO., the glow of a slender candlestick, and a delicate kiss peered through a rain-pattered window frame. These old-world elements were inspired by the verdant flora and overcast melancholy of John Everett Millais’ classic painting of Ophelia floating in an inky stream. Ellie from SILVER & SLATE says, “We were moved by that painting to create this shoot, and sought to emphasise a classic, organic sentiment that withstands the test of time.”
“Love floated on the mists of morn
And rested on the sunset’s rays;
He calmed the thunder of the storm
And lighted all my ways.”
