Fashion Photographer of the Year – Genelle Bevan

Cristina Re High Tea Style

Our dear friend and stylist from P.S. I Love You, Penny Adams recently teamed up with two fellow talented Aussies – Photographer Genelle Bevan and fashion designer Shane Mc Connell, to create these stunning photographs.

The inspiration for this gorgeous photography was the location of the shoot – the decadent setting of the St George Ballroom in St Kilda.

Penny styled the shoot using our perfect pastel tea cups, giving the photos a “very vintage, soft and feminine touch which worked beautifully with the ballroom and our styling”.

Penny and Genelle were tired of seeing this naked, harsh, aggressive work  that is in the fashion photography category, so they decided to bring a bit of “them” and their flair to the table! “I love beautiful textures and that french provincial feel and this all just came together beautifully.” – Genelle Bevan

We are madly in love with the colours, textures, tones and style of these photographs and think the team did a wonderful job. We aren’t the only ones who think these photos are fabulous, because Genelle won AIPP’s Fashion Photographer of the Year award, for her stunning work!
