A creative agency, Lustre Theory, and photographer David Abel hosted this dream workshop. It was all about non-traditional, bold complimentary color pairings. Reds, pinks, and greens. Stepping away from calmer wedding tones, it showcases unique table decor, an explosion of crimson blooms, and fashion-forward inspiration for a bold bride. For a couple that isn’t afraid to inspire and make a statement.
All captured against the incredible backdrop of the historical Perry Belmont House. The building, Beaux-Arts in style, was built from 1907 to 1909 for Perry Belmont. Perry served as a United States Congressman from New York and later as the United States ambassador to Spain. French architect Ernest-Paul Sanson designed the building, having built several European chateaux.
Opulence and texture combine to explode in color for a bold bride.
Kristin from Lustre Theory has a weakness for capes and extra drama when it comes to the fashion she works with.
She always selects her accessories with visual impact in mind. Especially shooting at a location like The Perry Belmont House where everything around you is on another level or ornate. No one wants to blend into the background.

“When it comes to my table designs I always try to give a unique taste and perspective of what else can be done beyond what is considered traditional. An intimate world all to itself waiting to be explored.”
