Okay, so this is shoot #2 from my three shoot series of high fashion bridal portraits from this weekend. This morning, I got to shoot the lovely Miss Callie. Hair and makeup by Yours Truly. Bouquet was also designed and created by Moi. The dress is an actual vintage piece I found on Etsy by the fabulous Claire of Green Hydrangea Marketplace. The veil and patent leather flower hair piece you see was also found on Etsy by Katherine of ‘Liaison’. LOVE LOVE LOVE her pieces!
I realized after a year of living in the south that the brides here, I have found to be leaning towards more traditional attire when it came to their wedding day. Brides! Get out of your comfort zone and try something different! Make yourselves stand out! A high fashion bridal look does not need to come at a high fashion cost, you know. Etsy is a GREAT place to find unique, high quality hairpieces, dresses, shoes, and other wedding day decor and you do not have to break the bank to look original and chic!
So I am going to show you one image from my many MANY favorites from this morning that I hope will inspire some of you traditionalist brides to step outside the box and do something different.
This shot was taken inside the Mez at Charlotte’s Epicenter. I had shot a bridal shower party here a few months ago and have always wanted to come back and shoot this wall with a very stylish bride. Many many more images to blog from yesterday and today’s sessions, along with a ton of images from Alin & I’s weekend getaway to Charleston, SC and will be posted starting Monday. Come back and check here daily! I would love to hear your thoughts! Let me know what you think below!
