#TBT Beachside Blush Wedding Inspiration

12.22.16
Category: earrings, Engagement Rings, Pendants, Photo-Shoots, Unique Engagement Rings

In the spirit of Through-back-Thursday, today we are reminiscing about the dreamy Style Me Pretty feature of Anouk Jewelry. The peach-and-gold themed styled shoot was captured by the talented Whitney Heard of Whitney Heard Photography, and featured no less than three of our designs!

As Style Me Pretty put it, “A fresh approach to a beachside romance, this locally styled shoot featured a stunning backdrop, a romantic fishtail braid, and plenty of gorgeous gold accents, this inspiration a la Whitney Heard Photography was peachy-hued perfection”.

Adds Whitney …The Scarborough Bluffs on the edge of Toronto were the stunning backdrop for this lakeside shoot. We love the combination of the fishtail braid, flowing dresses, and gold accents, which will bring a little warmth to any spring wedding. We took a fresh new approach to the blush colour palette by adding hints of peach and gold. This inspiration shoot is perfect for the fun loving bride, who wants to shine on her wedding day!

The bride wore our Peach Sapphire Halo ring, designed in 14k rose gold and features a deep peach sapphire centre stone, accentuated by a halo of a dozen sparkling diamonds. This unique engagement ring is a striking version of our Little Halo ring and is perfect for the bohemian bride planning her spring wedding.

This unconventional engagement ring is beautifully paired with our signature Mountain Star studs and the delicate Seashore Dot necklace.

We hope you enjoy our selection of images from this inspiring spring-style shoot.

Recent Interview for Kissed by Light Photography Blog

Category: Blue Sapphire Rings, Pendants, Photo-Shoots, Unique Engagement Rings

It’s always a pleasure working with inspired photographers, and they don’t come more talented than the lovely Lora Vertue of Kissed by Light! We recently collaborated on a stunning photoshoot for our upcoming lookbook (stay tuned!). Lora and her team interviewed Anouk designer Anat Kaplan for their online blog, as part of our recurring series of interviews featuring female artists, The Power of Her, and we’re excited to share the interview here as well.

Please tell us about your jewelry and unique style that defines your current designs.

I create fine jewelry inspired by nature and the ancient world. The bohemian and rustic look of my creations is achieved by hand carving, which results in highly sculptural and textured designs. I love working in all shades of gold, incorporating natural gemstones, especially raw diamonds and green sapphires.

What are your sources of inspiration?

I draw inspiration from the organic elements, especially water, its colours, flow and shimmer, and the textures that compliment it, like sand and rocks. I’d like my pieces to echo the raw beauty of nature, and to evoke that serene feeling of timelessness.

How did you decide to become a jewelry artist, tell us about your background?

I come from visual arts background; I fell in love with ancient jewellery during my university years studying art history. I took a course on ancient Greece and Rome and they showed us some jewellery pieces that blew me away. These treasures had so much character and personality, they really spoke to me. Still today ancient jewellery is endless source of inspiration.

Who are your clients, what kind of people come to you?

My clients are those who look for something different than the traditional wedding jewelry. They are often nature lovers, or creative folk, who appreciate local, artisanal pieces.

Often people come to me in search of a unique piece that would reflect their personality and those are my favourite clients to work with. Together we translate their story into gems and metals, creating a one of a kind, bespoke piece of jewelry.

Please tell us about your recent collection.

My most recent collection is the Golden Leafs line, it was born in anticipation of spring after a long winter, and it’s all about growth, renewal and awakening.

How did you feel about working with KBL’s Lora Vertue on the recent photoshoot?

Shooting with Lora is always a big treat for me. I’ve worked with many photographers, but Lora’s impeccable style, great attention to detail and professionalism truly stand out.

But most of all, she’s a true artist with a unique creative vision and an amazing talent for capturing beauty. I can’t wait to work with her again!

Here’s a sneak preview to some of the images from the recent photoshoot:

Elegant and Refined Irish Wedding Inspiration

Category: Engagement Rings, Pendants, Photo-Shoots, Unique Engagement Rings

Anouk Jewelry collaborated with Kayla Yestal Photography on a beautiful and inspirational bridal photoshoot in County Laois, Ireland, featuring our Floating Halo engagement ring and Seashore Dot necklace.  The story was published on Magnolia Rouge blog in March 2016.

To quote Kayla, “Using entirely local vendors from both our home base of Toronto and where would be staying throughout our trip, we manage to bring together elements that had an effortless and organic vibe that we would imagine a last minute elopement would have. Our overall goal was to prove that despite how daunting planning a wedding by yourself from an entirely different country can seem, it can be done in a relatively simple way while still appearing elegant and refined.“
