| STYLED SHOOT IV |
PHOTOGRAPHED BY ZACH DALIN PHOTOGRAPHY
“Live! By Loews–St. Louis is known to be a Cardinals haven. We wanted to represent a similar color palette but showcase the property and all of its incredible spaces for those who didn't necessarily want to do a Cardinals-themed wedding. You could say ‘I Do’ onsite but also host a cool Cardinals welcome party. Who else has a private outdoor lawn overlooking Ballpark Village? Our vision was to include colors, looks and florals that were ‘season-less’ and on par with the timeless luxury that the Loews brand offers on all of their properties, worldwide. We were going for ‘classic with a twist’ and ‘attainable luxury’ that felt relatable to all. We always want to produce projects where everyone involved can have fun while still completing the tasks set forth by the client. That's why we put the models in robes and had them have a popcorn fight! It's a way to showcase the rooms for the newlywed's first night, but also reflects the spirit of what we do. We also mixed in some street wear looks and staged a mock bachelorette party in a suite. We love the idea of creating situations that feel real for those who will be considering the hotel for their Big Day needs, but also keeping the quality of those images and that experience high-end. At the end of the day, weddings aren't just weddings anymore. It's an entire experience with multiple events and photo-ops along the way, from engagement all the way through the honeymoon.”
