Behind-the-Scenes Heaven!

>

I must say, I love being on location! I'm one of those sneaky snappers who is always getting behind-the-scenes photos, because I simply adore our shoots and I can't wait to share them. Shooting for our upcoming Autumn edition, we were at the gorgeous The Tearoom Gunners Barracks in Mosman last week. Surrounded by lush gardens, the heritage-listed venue provided the perfect backdrop for some of the most elegant and stylish gowns of the new season. Heavenly!

Model Amanda shows off a beautiful gown from Fashions by Farina, as makeup artist Marianna retouches for a flawless finish

One of the joys of going behind-the-scenes is seeing what goes into producing the perfect shot. A sheet of black plastic provides respite from the hot sandstone floor. And at close to 6ft, Model Amanda does not need heels!

Stylist Gail uses the unique sandstone surroundings to highlight the understated beauty of this sleek strapless number from Ella

One of the most intriguing things about being on set is watching the amazing creativity and innovation that goes into each and every shot. Huge compliments to our incredible crew: Photography by Sabino Mena Barreto, Hair by Halo Hair, Makeup by Marianna Grillo and a big round of applause for our super talented stylist Gail McDiarmid. I am practically climbing the walls waiting to see the finished product!

I hope you enjoyed a sneaky-peek behind-the-scenes. Let us know what you think!
