The Bridal Portrait Session || Stevenson Ridge, Fredericksburg VA

A bride on her wedding day is always beautiful, not just because of the fancy dress and professional hair and makeup, but because she radiates love and joy. I understand some brides love to have their bridal portraits taken a few weeks before their wedding, so they can have a photo of the bride get displayed at the wedding. Some brides don’t feel like to do their pre-wedding day bridal portraits by considering the fact that it would be a waste of money and time.

On a wedding day, I like to start the day with the bridal portrait session after capturing some moments of the bride getting ready. I LOVE bridal portrait sessions! I think this is one of my favorite things to photograph. There is nothing better than to photograph the Bride on her wedding day when she still looks fresh, excited and feels like a princess.

My advice to the future brides on your bridal portrait session, just relax and enjoy being in the moment and feeling special for the day.

I love to share some of the images from our Spring Bridal Styled shoot hosted by Nilo Burke last year.
