I had the distinct pleasure of not only doing the flowers for but also attending the wedding of Leeze and Carl earlier this year. I have been friends with Leeze’s family for many years now and it was such a treat to be a part of this momentous occasion and get to attend my first proper big Jewish wedding. So much fun! Here are some of their beautiful pics shot by Zoe Morley.
Sophia Kaplan Plants & Flowers is well and truly open for business. I’ve had so much fun on all the jobs I’ve done since I got back from Europe. To all my wonderful brides (and their grooms) and my lovely clients thank you so much for letting me flower for you. I’m also rather enjoying getting better acquainted with the other florists in our little flower gang. How fun and supportive you all are 🙂
I’ve just updated the website so feel free check it out, and please enjoy some of the new work I’ve posted below. For more information or any enquiries please email hello@sophia-kaplan.com
Last month I launched my website www.sophia-kaplan.com I’m still making some adjustments, but it’s an exciting step for my little business. Please check it out and let me know what you think!
I did flowers for a shoot late last year with Damien and Anastasia (same team as the Daughters of Simone shoot) which was recently published in White Magazine. Check out some of the pics below, or the article here.
Aitch is an illustrator originally from Romania, now living in Portugal. Her work is influenced by nature and folklore and reminds me of the ancient Hunt of the Unicorn tapestries.
Check out her website here.
White Magazine recently published the Daughters of Simone shoot we did back in April with photography by Damien Milan and art direction and styling by Anastasia Gladushchenko. It was such a great young team, hopefully we get the opportunity to work together again soon! Full credits below.
And be sure to check out the awesome behind the scenes video put together by Giovanno Bianchi.

The Little Flower School is run by Nicolette Owen and Sarah Ryhanen. Nicolette has her own floral studio Nicolette Camille Floral and Sarah is co-founder of beautiful Brooklyn florist Saipua as well as owner of a flower farm in upstate New York.
They came together in 2008 and now run classes all over the US and most recently did some special classes in Sydney. I was disappointed to learn of the classes after they had already sold out, but got to enjoy something of their visit through the photographs they posted of their trip.

Earlier this year my brother got married and I helped the lovely Nhu Christy with the flowers.
The bride and groom are both big foodies so along with the incredible catering from Aria and fresh pizzas from Rosso Pomodorro we tried to incorporate this into the flowers as well, using rosemary from the garden as well as fig branches from the markets. My sister and I wore simple flower crowns and we had big ‘buckets’ of blooms around the gardens.
Check out my sister-in-law’s food blog The Gourmet Forager for more pics from the day.
