Irvington Spring Farm Bridal Session

September 24, 2014 Leave a Comment

Bridal sessions is probably one of my favorite photograph sessions of all time. Well, maybe it ties in first place with wedding day photo sessions, but I just LOVE when bride has this moment all to herself. I mean what is not to like  about a session which features a bride, her bridal gown, all her pretty bridal accessories, and all set in a lovely location perfect for her? This bridal session is so pretty as photographer Foster and Asher, does a fantastic job in  capturing the most stunning  moments of this gorgeous bride.  Wait until you see the charming flower crown which compliments her dress in the most beautiful way.  I have to admit, I kind of want to steal that flower crown and make it my own. (but I will not of course!). Its that I love it so much, but it was definitely made for this bride, and this bride only.  Enjoy a little bit of bridal magic as you view the incredible images below.

From  Foster and Asher…

Foster & Asher traveled to Irvington Spring Farm (one of our favorite flower vendors) to photograph a bridal portrait session with the beautiful Jeanne. The beautiful flower crown Jeanne is wearing was made by Jeanne Davies and is an assortment of Yarrow. We love these portrait session at Irvington Spring Farm because they give us extra time to capture the beauty of the bride. Often times we suggest to our brides that they consider a bridal portrait session AFTER they marriage. We have found that our brides are often much more comfortable during these shoots after the wedding.  We chose Irvington Spring Farm in Central, VA as our location for this shoot partially because of the beautiful early morning light, but mostly because of the gorgeous hand-manicured flower farm they maintain.

New Jersey Country Club Wedding

September 10, 2014 Leave a Comment

I’ve got three words for this wedding. Exquisite, Sophisticated, and Chic. Obsessing over all the elegant details from the super stunning bridal gown, the over the top flower centerpieces, and a bride who looks absolutely beautiful and her groom very dapper.  The kind of wedding that has us gasping at every single detail.  Honestly, I can not get enough of the bridal dress. I have seen my share of bridal gowns, but nothing as gorgeous as this one. And one that looks so darn fabulous on this bride. She is totally owning this gown and all its sparkle and shine. Of course, you also have  grasmere hills productions to capture all the beauty.  Enjoy the images of this New Jersey wedding.

From grasmere hills productions…

Carissa and Mike’s Westmount Country Club wedding was simply amazing. The day started at House of Trends where the staff did a terrific job on hair and makeup.  All of Carissa’s Bridesmaids and Family looked amazing.  From there, we made our way to Carissa’s mothers house where Mike had a beautiful letter waiting for her.  I didn’t get to read the letter but I was able to read Carissa’s face and I’m pretty sure Mike wrote something special.  The ceremony was at Our Lady Queen of Peace Church in Staten Island.  The ceremony went off without a hitch and Carissa and Mike couldn’t stop smiling.  On the way to the Wesmount, we stopped at Lamberts Castle for a quick photo shoot with the bridal party and it was wild.  I think at one point every one was in the fountain.  After the craziness at the castle, we made a short trip to Westmount and thats where the party began.  Atlas Floral did an amazing job and every table looked perfect.  The feeling of love was radiating through everyone at the wedding.   The entertainment was by  Partners in Sound  and they kept everyone on their feet all night long.  We also got to work with the talented  Rob Adams  and can’t wait to see his film.  Transportation was by Romantique.  Her amazing dress was by Stephen Yearick and purchased at Castle Couture.

Laura wanted something a little more modern for her shoot. But she also wanted to tie in some of the rustic details to make it more her style. We chose an old warehouse in Mebane, NC to start it off then headed out to a local farm to get some softer shots of Laura.

A Vintage Bridal Session from Micah McCoy Studio

July 25, 2014 Leave a Comment

Bridal sessions are one of my favorite photo-shoots. They really are. I mean, it is all about the bride, her gown, her hair, make up, and all the pretty bridal details. What is not to love? This bridal session is no exception. Located in an historic part of town and featuring a bride who is in love with vintage details as much as I am. Another reason why I love this bridal session so much. It is personal, creative, and charming. Can we talk about the bride’s pretty details? That lace dress is absolutely  stunning. Wow! And then the lovely shoes compliments the dress just perfectly. Oh, and can we please talk about all her accessories? Pearls, pearls, and more pearls. Just pairs up beautifully with the dress and this pretty bride. I can go and on about this bridal session, but I think its best that you take a look at the gorgeous images captured by Micah McCoy Studio . A photographer after my vintage loving heart. Micah McCoy Studio  did a brilliant job in capturing the style and personality of this bride.

From Micah McCoy Studio …

Autumn was looking for a vintage vibe for this bridal shoot, so I booked space in a local studio space in Urbana’s historic downtown. Autumn’s vintage dress complimented the setting well and she looked absolutely breathtaking descending the stairs of the building. It was like being in an old movie. Autumn made her flowers herself from paper and decorated her shoes for the occasion. To add to the authenticity of the shoot I shot many of the images on black and white film, and used vintage lenses.
