So it is 2 weeks into the new year and we figured it was about time we got caught up on some blog posts. 2011 was an exciting and rewarding year for us, but boy were we busy! We are both so proud and honored to have been included in so many monumental occasions in our clients lives. We documented 24 couples becoming husband & wife last year and thought we’d share them all here with you. We sincerely thank you from the bottom of our hearts and look forward to what 2012 has to offer! ~ Christine & Sarah

A formal bridal portrait doesn’t have to be the old school stuffy picture made in a studio and hung over your parents fireplace. What it can be is a chance to get dressed up in your wedding attire and have some fun. Bridal sessions allow us the time to capture beautiful images in a relaxed setting, that is not possible on your actual wedding day. There is no timelines to rush you, no bridesmaids to stress you… just you and the camera in picture perfect scenery. Here is a glance at Casey’s Bridal Session photographed at my new favorite venue, Vinewood.

Casey was a very classically styled bride on her wedding day, think Jackie O… But for her bridal, we wanted to mix it up a little and show her outgoing and colorful side. I don’t know which look is my favorite, she looks amazing in both! I’d love to hear which is your favorite, leave us a comment below! ~ Christine
