Back in March 2020, we teamed up with the brilliant photographer Emma Leivers from Heart Full Of Tea and a group of talented creatives for a 80’s inspired spring photo shoot. After being locked down for a few months, it was such a joy to come together and work on this amazing project. The flowers were bright and sunny and the images taken by Emma brought the whole concept together perfectly.
