One year ago, I found a dream.

Many years after my own wedding, a dress appeared in the social media feed, and I couldn’t take my thoughts and eyes off it. In that moment, an idea settled: to capture one special couple in this unique dress, on the magical Oregon Coast.

With trembling hands, I wrote to wedding designer Daci Gowns.

Daci completely stole my heart with her vision - a dress that truly reveals itself in nature, especially in the wind🌪️

Her art moved me deeply : every piece of silk for the stunning Daci chooses comes from around the world, each one the finest. Each gown is hand-dyed using plant- and fruit-based dyes, making it feel alive, almost breathing.

Anna and Ruben, who have called the West Coast home for many years and met in the Pacific Northwest, had been dreaming of renewing their vows. And everything found its place.

There were three of them: a couple, wildly in love, the dress and the wind.

Inspiration that grows from another creator’s devotion : from heart, from hands is one of the strongest forces I know.

The other component.. is love.
