Alina at Fairy and Photographer and Sabrina at Moon Realm found each other on Instagram and immediately hit it off with their shared love for non-traditional wedding styles. They both wanted to create a styled shoot with an atmospheric and moody vibe, embracing freedom and unexpected elements. Their design process flowed naturally as their creative styles clicked while brainstorming the details of the shoot. Once they finalized the design board, the photographer and the planner brought in some of their go-to local desert wedding vendors to bring their creative vision to life.
For their avant-garde alien bridal look, they dressed the model in a mix of vintage and modern pieces. The photos showcase pearls set against the backdrop of ancient lava rock formations at the ceremony site, creating a striking contrast between soft oceanic elements and the rugged, imaginative spirit of the American West.
The creative vision of Fairy & Photographer brought to life stunning photos that flawlessly embodied the chosen theme of the styled shoot.
The team organized a unique wedding styled shoot at the Moon Realm desert ranch in Landers, California. Inspired by themes of freedom and the unexpected, they aimed to embody the essence of the location, known for its supernatural history of UFO sightings. The area is home to notable spots like The Integratron, an alien landmark, and Rock Corral, a historic watering spot for cowboys and their animals. The landscape is dotted with creosote bushes, among the oldest living organisms on earth at nearly 12,000 years old.
Through their collaboration and creative vision their team showcased the magic and wonder of the desert landscape, creating a one-of-a-kind wedding experience that celebrated the unique blend of nature, style, and creativity.
