The colours that nature provides us with in the autumn months are truly heavenly aren't they? And although we see them every year, I feel like each time the season rolls around we're once again in awe of the masterclass that Mother Nature puts on� and it's certainly on display in this debut styled shoot from South African based Lucia of D'amor Photography. I think she's done an amazing job of it!

�The idea behind the shoot was to embrace the rich, decadent colours that only autumn can produce and create a styled shoot that would showcase just how stylish and striking these colours can be when used in a creative way. We decided to give the shoot two sides, the main focus was using the autumn colours and with the second side we incorporated a lot of whites, while still making use of some autumn elements.�

Unbeknownst to the Carla � the model, her boyfriend had arranged with Lucia to propose to her at the beginning of the shoot, so it turned from a styled shoot to a very romantic surprise proposal that was entirely documented � and ever so beautifully of course!
