Bridal Sessions – what are they and why you want one

If you are a bride, you may be asking yourself, what are bridals and do I want a session?

A bridal portrait session is a session before the wedding, usually a month or so before, focusing solely on the bride. You are photographed dressed in your wedding attire.

Why should I do them?

  1. It gives you the perfect opportunity to do your hair and makeup trials to see how everything comes together and photographers. This gives you the opportunity to make changes if you want for the big day.
  2. You can have them printed and have them displayed at the wedding.
  3. It allows you to capture beautiful bridals in a stress-free environment. As most people know, weddings can often be a tad stressful and you don’t always have the time you want for everything. With a bridal session, you get all those gorgeous solo portraits you want without having to take a bunch of time the day of the wedding.
  4. Just like a trial for your hair and makeup, this can also be a trial for your bouquet. See if you are in love with it or want to make some changes to it before the wedding day.

Where do I do my bridal session?

The options are endless. A lot of people opt to do portraits at the venue they are getting married at. This obviously depends on the willingness of your selected venue. Outside of your venue, you can pick an outdoor location like a botanical gardens, historic building, or downtown. I personally love an indoor studio so you aren’t dependent on the weather and there isn’t anything that can mess up your hair and makeup and you don’t run the risk of getting your dress dirty.

Flatlay photos beforehand:

I love flatlays, which is an artisticly designed portrait of your wedding day details. When you have a bridal session, you can bring your detailed items and I can take your flatlay details in advance giving you more time back with me on your wedding day.
