Stormy Oregon Coast Styled Shoot

Speaking as a native Oregonian I’m about to spill a local secret. The beaches? Well, they’re unbelievable. Take this enchanting day from Stephanie Mballo. It’s a misty morning juxtaposed against vibrant blooms, in what I like to coin as crazy beautiful stormy coastal chic. See it all here!

From The Foraged FernThe stormy clouds and dark cliffs couldn’t have provided a dreamier location. We wanted to mix a combination of coastal neutrals with deep moody florals. It really added a more dramatic feel to the typical beach look. One of my biggest goals was to find the perfect pale blue gown. As soon as I found this Gossamer gown I knew it was perfect. I could envision the soft flowing sleeves in the wind and the back layers mocking the crashing waves.
