Photo Shoot India 2025!

Photo Shoot India 2025!

There is something about Jaipur in October that feels almost cinematic. The soft golden light, the scent of marigolds and spice in the air, the faded pink walls glowing at sunset — every corner of the city seems to tell a story. 


Last October, we returned to the place where every piece of Rize jewellery begins: Jaipur, India. This time, not only to work with my talented artisan partners, but to shoot my latest jewellery collection.  As a brand, Jaipur is woven into its identity. Every Rize piece is designed in the UK and handcrafted by skilled fair trade artisans in Jaipur using traditional techniques and recycled sterling silver. 

The collection itself was inspired by bold spiritual symbolism and the vibrant energy of India balanced with timeless wearable design. I wanted every piece to feel soulful and collected, as though it had been discovered during a journey through hidden courtyards, bustling gemstone markets and centuries-old palaces.

As always our shoot location was breathtaking, Amer Stepwell - A stepwell is a traditional Indian water reservoir built with intricate staircases leading down to the water below.

   

 

 

One of the most special parts of the trip was spending time again with the artisans who bring our designs to life. Watching pieces being hand-finished, stones carefully set, textures etched by hand and silver transformed into future heirlooms is always a reminder of why slow, ethical craftsmanship matters so much to us.  In a world of fast fashion and mass production, these human hands and generations of skill are what make each piece meaningful.

 

 

This collection also reflects the spirit of Rize itself — jewellery designed not just to accessorise, but to empower, uplift and connect. I have always believed jewellery can carry energy and intention. Whether it’s a talisman necklace, a gemstone pendant or a bold pair of statement hoops, each design is created to help you feel radiant, grounded and uniquely yourself.

Shooting in Jaipur reminded us why we started this journey in the first place. The city is chaotic and beautiful all at once. It teaches you to embrace colour, imperfection, spontaneity and soul. It reminds you that beauty is often found in the handcrafted details — the tiny marks of the maker, the stories behind each piece, the people who create them.

 

We hope these pieces carry a little of Jaipur’s magic into your everyday life. A little warmth, a little strength and a little shine.
