Flourish: Bridal Portraits

The second session of the second day at Flourish we had the opportunity to observe Angela in her studio working with models in amazing wedding gowns. She was totally in her element, and it was such a treat to watch her work. Angela’s cinematic lighting genius husband, Gary, set up some really fabulous lighting and taught us about various techniques and equipment.

This was my first time ever doing bridal portraits! I really love these dramatic images of Leah in her Romona Keveza dress with this crisp lighting:




Sarah is wearing Amsale’sEmma” dress:


When Gary switched on this fabulously stunning lighting for us, everyone instantly ooo’ed and ahh’ed over it:

I really need to get my hands on some hot lights to play around with that kind of set up! Okay and while I’m wishing, I wish I had a studio space like this. I’d probably never leave!

Last but not least, Erica is wearing a beautiful Paloma Blanca (style 3806):



I seriously could’ve taken pictures of them all day. Everything about each of the girls was breathtaking. Ana Crane-Simpson did THE most spectacular job on the girls’ make-up; she deserves a huge shout-out. And all of the dresses from Bluegrass Bride were amazing.

Next up: (get ready for this) the “lights out” session!

    Umm, GORGEOUS!!! I love the images you got of these gals! Just beautiful. I especially love the last one of Erica. Great angle.
    And that Romona Keveza dress…oh my goodness! That was my favorite! Now if I only had the body to wear it.

    Cheers,
