What are Bridal Portraits?
Bridal portraits before the wedding are a wonderful way to capture beautiful, relaxed photos of the bride before her actual wedding day. They allow brides to feel comfortable not only with their photographer, but also with their wedding day look and attire.
Your special day will be so jam-packed with awesome wedding activities, you will have less time than you think for portraits with your carefully chosen gown, accessories, beautiful hair and impeccable makeup. Bridal portaits immortalize your best-day ever, without having to stress over a timeline. Because you will feel relaxed, the photos will look natural, elegant and intimate.

Bridal portraits often become favorite keepsakes for parents, grandparents and the groom. They can also be printed ahead of time and displayed at the wedding reception (just make sure the groom doesn’t sneak-a-peek beforehand!)
