What to give the groom as a special gift is a challenge that brides often face. Bridal boudoir photography rapidly is becoming a great answer to that very question. I love to shoot this type session as the bride to be is always so very excited, and I know the groom to be will never forget this very special private gift.
This time the room we shot in had lots of mirrors for me to work with. I love mirrors when I shoot, of course they do present challenges for a photographer as it is often difficult to hide yourself when dealing with multiple mirrors such as in this shot.

Of course I am always up for a new challenge when I can make a future bride look this beautiful. We had a really fun time during her shoot, and I know her groom will love the private label album she had created just for him.

Candice and Daniel’s wedding took place this weekend during sunset. The couple looked to be very much in love and the sunset made for a beautiful wedding. Outdoor wedding at sunset do provide some challenges, but they also provide some opportunities to create some amazing photographs.
Having a short ceramony allowed it to complete before it got dark. With a little flash it was easy to create some great images.
As ususal, formals were shot right after the ceramony. The sky was looking great. As the colors got richer though, it gets darker. Here having good equipment and experience become very important. Knowing what my camera was capable, I still made sure to verify it was doing what I wanted by checking the LCD information and thumbnails. As usual, it was almost impossible to see or focus. Having a flash that emits a focus beam helps alot.
As the night went on I took advantage of the bonfires and decorative lighting to create some fantastic images. As a photographer, I love it when the environment gives me so many opportunities to create great and unique images for a client.
Congratulations Candice and Daniel!
