Utterly romantic, the photo series titled Renaissance by Caroline Knopf, a photographer based in Brooklyn, New York, is inspired by life in the Middle Ages. As though having mastered time travel, the photographer manages to transport her model back in time through the use of makeup and wardrobe.
Shot for Conde Nast Brides 75th Anniversary Edition, Renaissance by Caroline Knopf showcases a flourish of opulent gowns. Whether traditionally frothy and white or more colorfully ornate with floral embroidery, the wedding dresses will surely attract those who are looking to make a statement.
Renaissance by Caroline Knopf was inspired by Metropolitan Museum's Exhibition of Love and Art During The Italian Renaissance and was recently recognized by Graphis Photography Annual.
