Pina Fiorenza draws her inspiration for design from her Italian heritage and extensive international travel. Pina's exquisite designs incorporate fabrics such as satin, silk and organza with delicate hand-beading and embroidery."To me, creating doesn't begin with a business transaction in mind, but rather a feeling that is poured into each design without all the rules and regulations of gown making. This is what makes a true creator stand apart from the rest. Each bride has her own personality, and so does each gown. Although the designs are mine, I believe that when a bride finds and wears the perfect wedding gown, it becomes hers and hers alone."  GO TO THE DIGITAL EDITION >> VIEW OUR ADVERTISEMENT >> VISIT OUR WEB SITE

The photographic industry has recognised Marcus' extraordinary talent and awarded him with various accolades: in 2006 the studio was awarded the number one studio in the country as judged by the top 50 leading creative professionals.
