Bridal portraits are not just for before the wedding ceremony! My friend Evelyn was married on November 12, 2010 in Tennessee. Evelyn and her husband, Brandon Waite, live in Muncie, Ind.
There are no rules as to when a bridal portrait should be done.
I like photographing newlyweds, who have had destination weddings or return to their hometown to be married.
A bridal portrait or newlywed shoot after the wedding can be very relaxed because there are no time constraints such as on the actual wedding day. Capturing a couple in love without the pressure of time can enhance the photo shoot. It may not be the actual day, but things happen.
For instance, there are no guarantees that if you have a fall or winter wedding you would be able to shoot outdoors. It could rain in the spring or summer. If you plan to have a photo shoot after the wedding, you can control the weather.
If you would like to just do more wedding photography and have the budget to do so, have another photo session! You paid a lot of money for the dress and the suit...get your money's worth!
Bridal portraits before the ceremony are a gorgeous way to display your bridal beauty with prints on display at your ceremony or wedding reception. No one needs to see the pictures before your big day, but having the portrait already finished will add an elegant touch to your reception.
Stay tuned for more portraits of Evelyn and Brandon in the months to come as the weather warms up and the garden's grow green.
