A dining table should have an interesting display even when its not being used. There is always some arrangement on my dining table, it’s a favorite place for me to create pretty vignettes.

Before this shoot for At Home Magazine I visited this home to access what I was going to need to do.
For the dining room I saw straight on, catching the gorgeous architecture with the table in the center makes a compelling photo, but the table was empty.
The shot would need drama, color, and a fun vignette to pull us in. The homeowner had a pretty Majolica dish and purple glasses in her glass cupboard which inspired me to create this pretty display.
