Elena: Bridal Session

To my faithful blog followers: remember waaaay back here when I said that this bridal shoot was coming soon? Yes well, in my world "soon" is an awfully relative term...Moving along. My sister wanted some bridal portraits taken before the wedding day because (a) she knew I would force her to anyway and (b) she wanted to cut down on some of the hustle and bustle of the wedding day. So happy to appease as I am, bridal shoot we did.

Here are some of my favorites:  

oh and be prepared for lots of biased comments.

Fave #1..need I say why?

Oh man, her eyes are beautiful! Fave #2

Ok this one is a bit bright, but I loved the way the light was hitting her..

I know I showed this one before but I love it. It reminds me of a princess. Fave #3

I think it's become quite apparent that I love reflection shots( like in this post oh and this one)

She looks like epic bride. I love it! Fave #4

Workin' the 'tude. This is the face that made boys cringe in high school for even talking to her. Ha!

This place reminds me of an English garden. Please sa' may I have some mo'?

Yep, she looks beautiful, even upside down. Oh and by the way, the watch she is wearing in these photos was given to her by her fiance-now-husband.

Her shoes which she bedazzled into spelling "I DO"

Thanks again Elena for letting me force you into doing this. You're gorgeous ok?

 Oh and for the curious: some of the official wedding photos can be seen here. Taken by the talented Churchill's Photography.
