My First Bridal Session

Beyond promotional pieces, I've never done a real bridal session. For most of us wearing the wedding dress before the wedding is unheard of. For the frugal ones like myself- isn't that what the photographer is supposed to do the day of the wedding.

Amy's session took place because she had an amazing gown, that would not fit her soon to be daughter arriving this spring. But it does lend itself to the idea of scheduling a bridal session the day of the wedding.

After the hair and make-up and before the events of the wedding and reception. Just putting aside an extra 15-30 min to slow down and take some really amazing photographs in your wedding dress. There's something to be said for documenting the second most outward symbol of your wedding besides your rings and as much as is invested in this one garment, it certainly deserves more than 10 quick shots before moving onto bridal party photos.
