The beautiful bride.

Posted on January 16, 2010

There is something about a women in a wedding dress that is always beautiful. No matter her height, or weight, hair or skin color. She is at her best. Confident and well groomed down to the last detail. I’ve never seen a bride that wasn’t beautiful. As the photographer, I’m one of the very few who gets to see the bride in her wedding dress before the actual ceremony. It’s like a special secret I’m required to keep. So I’m always patiently waiting for the wedding day to come and go so I can post the bridal images.

This particular bride had a lovely January wedding.  Our bridal session, like most of the rest, took place outdoors a few months before. She choose two locations that were simple, yet interesting. As she stepped out of the car, I could feel her excitement and cautiousness. It brought back so many memories. All of us who’ve worn that beautiful expensive gown have a memory of how it felt to finally wear it outside of the store. It’s a big deal.

Having an outdoor session adds a little to your story. Can you tell the season here? A little green mixed with a few fallen leaves to create a nice pattern on the ground beneath her.

It was an overcast day with a few rain clouds drifting closer. The gray-blue sky was a beautiful back drop. She stood out from the background. Mother nature was kind enough to throw in a little breeze to lift her hair back from her face. Perfect.
