With the expert organization of planners from Farniente Agency and styled to perfection by Anastasiia Uganson, every detail of this day speaks to a love that is both spontaneous and deeply romantic.
The inspiration behind this shoot was Petten Beach, a breathtaking northern coastal gem. With its rolling dunes stretching for miles, the wild wind, and the serene northern sea, it captures the raw beauty of a northern beach like no other. Every element – from the pathways to the swings, bike racks, and cozy beach cafes – feels like it’s always been part of the environment, naturally growing out of the earth itself. It’s this perfect balance of nature and subtle infrastructure that made Petten Beach the perfect setting for this styled shoot.
A Perfect Ride for Two
The inspiration for this shoot came effortlessly. The team imagined a couple deeply in love, embracing the freedom of the open landscape, dressed in a way that reflects their carefree, vibrant connection. The tandem bicycle became the perfect symbol of their unity, a fun and playful way to explore the rolling hills together.
The couple’s outfits are relaxed yet refined, perfectly blending into the serene surroundings. Every moment feels intimate and authentic as they share quiet glances and laughter, riding through the golden light of the setting sun. The vastness of the dunes and the soft breeze from the northern sea only emphasize their love, making each frame feel like a snapshot of pure joy and timeless romance.
From Day to Night
As the sun sets, the couple’s mood shifts into something more romantic. Ilse wears a long, flowing silk dress, adding a delicate veil over her eyes. True to her cheerful nature, she doesn’t forget her playful bow—an accessory that perfectly captures her bright and joyful personality.
The couple walked barefoot along the beach, swinging on the large swings as they soaked in the last light of day. As night fell, they wrapped themselves in a blanket and left the magical charm of Petten Beach behind. Photographer Polina Yarmush captured each heartfelt moment with precision and artistry, telling their love story through beautifully composed and candid shots.
As the day turned into night, the mood shifted from playful to romantic. The couple shared quiet moments as they watched the sky transform into hues of pink and orange. The beach, now bathed in the soft glow of twilight, became even more magical, creating an intimate atmosphere that perfectly reflected the depth of their bond.
