A Day Behind the Scenes: pampeano’s Autumn/Winter 2024 Photoshoot

What a day we had—it was such an incredible experience being part of the pampeano Autumn/Winter 2024 photoshoot, and we just had to share it with you all. Picture this: a gorgeous manor hotel, stunning countryside views, and the most beautiful pieces from the new collection. Let me take you through it, from morning coffee to the final shot.

The day kicked off early, around 8 am, we met up at our absolutely stunning location, The New Park Manor Hotel—a luxury estate in the new forest countryside introduced to us by our brand partners Pets Pyjama’s. Think golden fields, frost-kissed grass, and trees just starting to turn all those rich autumn colours.

The pampeano team started to set up, there were racks of the new collection already styled, and the vibe was so relaxed and natural. Everyone was buzzing but in that calm, focused way that you get when you know something amazing is about to happen. The crew had a quick briefing— the day’s plan, where the shots were going to take place, and how we were going to work with the light.

Once the models arrived, we jumped straight into prep. Hair and makeup were all about keeping things earthy and real. Think soft waves, barely-there makeup—just letting their natural beauty shine through against the luxurious backdrop of the hotel’s interiors.

The models were draped in these incredible leather belts, hand-stitched with intricate, colourful patterns, each one more stunning than the last. Then there were the wool and cashmere scarves —so soft and luxurious, perfect for the seasons ahead. Accessorising the outfits was easy with pampeano’s premium leather travel bags and handbags. The colours were totally in tune with autumn/ winter —deep burgundies, rich browns, and hints of forest green. They felt both timeless and modern for everyday city or country life. One of our favourite moments was watching the close-up shots of the belts and the details on the travel bags. You could see the artisanship in every stitch.

After a solid morning of shooting, we took a break for lunch. The hotel had set up a little table with fresh bread sandwiches, salads and hummus. Everyone gathered around, chatting and sharing ideas for the afternoon shots. You could really feel the creative energy bouncing around the group, and it was so inspiring to be part of it.

The afternoon was all about getting those outdoor shots, so we moved into the grounds of the hotel and the New Forest Camping site. The models were styled in layered looks—cosy coats, wool scarves, Christys sophisticated hats and those signature leather belts —giving off this effortlessly stylish vibe. The addition of the luxurious leather travel bags and handbags added a sense of elegance to the outfits and the scenes. Every piece felt like it belonged in the scene.

One of the coolest parts was watching how the team played with textures. There’s something about pairing rugged, natural materials like leather and wool with the soft, filtered light that just makes everything pop on camera. The belts, in particular, looked stunning against the natural backdrop, and you could see the craftsmanship in every shot.

We spent a lot of time capturing movement, too—like the way a scarf drapes when you walk or how a belt moves. It wasn’t just about static poses but capturing the lifestyle and energy that pampeano represents. It was about living in these accessories, not just wearing them.

 

By the time we wrapped, the team were so happy with how everything turned out. The pampeano Autumn/Winter 2024 line feels like it was made for this season, blending tradition with a fresh, modern energy.

A massive thank you to the photographer, models, MUA, our brand partners Air & Grace, Pats Pyjamas, Christys and New Park Manor Hotel and everyone involved in making this shoot such a success. Can’t wait for you all to see the final shots and experience this collection for yourselves. Until then, stay warm, stay stylish, and embrace the season with your favourite pampeano accessories!
