From the eerie, yet beautiful location, to the bouquet and bride’s gown, today’s details are all wonderfully pin-worthy. But what makes these images even more intriguing is the story behind them. Today’s inspiration comes from Elena Pavlova and tells the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. A tragic love story of two characters who are separated by uninevitable death. They have the chance to be together again when Orpheus convinces Hades to let his beloved wife return to earth. They are reunited for only a brief period before Eurydice is, again, taken away and the lovers loose each other for eternity.
From the photographer…This is a story about eternal love, about pains and separation, about life and death, about a woman and a man…the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice…
“You cannot see her until you go to the earth, - Hades said - Come back to earth and know this: Eurydice will go after you. But do not look back and do not try to look at her. If you look back - you will lose her forever! “
