The classic beauty of editorial aesthetics meets the lively spirit of Miami’s tropical charm in Erika Tuesta’s editorial-styled shoot. Her plan to use the luxurious Thesis Hotel Miami as a backdrop resulted in a celebration of style, grace, and a fashion-forward approach that always inspired her.
The shoot starts with the bride getting ready, wearing a sparkly wedding dress with sheer sleeves and a deep neckline. Her hair is done up in loose waves, and a makeup is a soft and natural, inspired by Sophia Richis’ wedding. A delicate fragrance by Maison Francis Kurkdjian Paris and elegant beige heels by Dior finished her look.
The groom was dressed in a sleek velvet suit by Dior with a white shirt and bow tie. A small white boutonnière adds a classic touch to his lapel, and cufflinks with a watch sharpen the look.
The couple’s first look takes place under the arch with cascading red flowers. Architectural simplicity and abundance of flowers created a romantic and intimate setting for such delicate occasion.
“I wanted a small bouquet that would be an accessory to her look.” – Erika says.
The photographer captured bride and groom enjoying a relaxed moment at the bar, looking chic. She’s radiant in sunglasses, he’s holding a cocktail, leaning towards her.
Erica have a talent for capturing the couple’s emotions and the day’s mood. The varied backdrops and natural poses create a vivid and memorable wedding photos. We liked her clear, bright style and attention to details.
Later the bride changed for a new look: “I wanted to create different looks for the bride: one more fun but still very stylish – for this look, we used the short wedding dress by Dovita; and more romantic and elegant by Julia Kontogruni .” – Erika shared.
For the ceremony, the bride changed for stunning white lace gown with a sheer overlay and delicate embroidery. The dress features long sleeves, a high neckline, and a flowing train, adding a touch of dramatic beauty to her look.
The couple exit the hotel wearing relaxed modern outfits: the bride was wearing a chic, simple white gown with thin straps and a flowing skirt. The groom in a classic black tuxedo, a white shirt and without a bow tie, ready for the end of the day.
