First off, let’s take a moment to appreciate how stunning Griffin looks in her bridal portraits!
Okay now let’s get into all things bridal- why we do bridal sessions, the benefits, and why we love them!
It’s no secret that being in front of the camera can be intimidating. But, you want those dream wedding photos. Have you ever heard the saying ”practice makes perfect?” Well then here you go, we recommend a bridal session because it gets you comfortable with your photographer, the poses, and being in front of the camera before your wedding! It also helps you determine possible poses you absolutely love or the ones you feel like we can skip on wedding day.
A bridal portrait session allows a wedding photographer to focus solely on capturing the beauty and elegance of the bride. It's a chance to create stunning, timeless images without the distractions and time constraints of the wedding day. Plus, it provides an opportunity for the bride to feel like a model and showcase her gown and style in a more relaxed setting.
Bridal portrait sessions also allow wedding photographers to build a deeper connection with the bride, understanding her vision and preferences more intimately. It's a collaborative process that often results in breathtaking images that the bride cherishes for a lifetime.
I’m sure you’ve heard this a thousand times, but we’re going to include it just in case. Schedule your bridal hair and makeup trials for this day so you can really visualize and see how you’re going to look on your wedding day and in photos so you’re not stuck with something you end up not liking on your big day. Also, contact your florist, they can make you a bouquet as well that will look like your real one!
Another reason wedding photographers love bridal portrait sessions is the creative freedom they offer. Without the hustle and bustle of the wedding day, photographers can experiment with different poses, lighting setups, and locations to truly showcase the bride's beauty and personality in a unique way.
Having these photos of you already done takes some the stress away from the big day. Your timeline can move slower, and you can join the party faster with these already done!
Bridal portrait sessions also provide wedding photographers with the opportunity to capture the bride's anticipation and excitement leading up to her big day. It's a special time filled with anticipation and joy, and photographers love being able to document these emotions in a beautiful and meaningful way.
We also have seen lots of brides print out one of their portraits and reveal it at the wedding! This is also a really fun way to show off your beautiful portraits!
All in all, we feel that you really can’t go wrong with bridal portraits! Contact us today at kelli@yahphotography and let’s get started!
