Snow White Bridal Styled Shoot

It is days like today where I really can not believe what an incredible job I have. As a wedding blogger, I have the chance to share some amazing talent and view some gorgeous details along the way. Today’s post is no exception to the rule of brilliant talent and prettiness. And today is extra special . My two favorite things have come together for a beautifully styled shoot. Yep, Disney and weddings.  Not just Disney, but  more specifically, a  Disney Princess.  This lovely bridal styled shoot has all the details I love in a Disney inspired session.  The beautiful bride as Snow White, the iconic apple from the Evil Witch, the exquisite table with pops of red, and a breathtaking setting fit perfectly for this stunning princess.  I have to talk about the fabulous bridal gown for a second. Swoon indeed! The gold accents floating on the dress, and the style is absolutely elegant. Perfect for a princess! I can go on and on about this fantastic Snow White session, but it will take up the whole page, and I think its best to judge for yourself.  If you are as big of a Disney fan as I am, then you will see why I am so obsessed over this Disney princess bridal styled shoot from the very talented Endless Exposures Photography who has obviously taken over my Disney & wedding loving heart.

A bit about the styled shoot from Endless Exposures Photography

I have been wanting to put together a styled shoot for awhile now and recently collaborated a dark Snow White inspired bridal shoot. Casey Wilburn modeled for me in a Terani Couture ball gown that I had found in a thrift shop. Casey’s look struck out to me and I knew she would fit the roll perfectly. She did her own hair and makeup as I was on a budget for the shoot, so everything that I could do within my team was going to save me money. I love the gold and red dark colors in season this year so I wanted to incoporate that as well. 
  I put together props from Hobby Lobby, Michaels, antique and thrift shops, and things I had collected around the house. I wanted it to have a dark and filmy look. I shot hybrid with some in film and some in digital. For the things that I could not find in the color that I wanted, I spray painted gold. I made the dummy cake with styrofoam and fondant, and used gold food coloring to spray paint the top of the cake. I found the cake topper apple at the store for 50% off to add a finishing touch! It was fate when I passed by it! 
  We shot in a wooded area where I like to jog at. There’s a trail that I discovered years ago and I love it as my hidden gem location spot. I knew it would be perfect for the dark look that I was going for.

Holly’s bridal session took place at Royalty Pecan Farms in Caldwell, Texas. Such a beautiful, lovely girl mixed with amazing weather made for some of my very favorite bridal portraits ever!

Irvington Spring Farm Bridal Session

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.

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

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.

 Our lovely model was Taylor Dukes and our location was the Quail Hill Trailhead in Irvine, California. I wanted to shoot a beautiful bridal gown in a big open field because I pictured this beautiful bridal gown that is soft, romantic, with modern touches in an open field that was opposite of the couture gown. When I saw the gown on Taylor, it reminded me of a ballerina. So I chose the simple hairstyle of a bun with braids with a silver strip of lace added for decoration. The gown has so much texture to it that I didn’t want to take away from it. So the hair, makeup and accessories were kept simple. If you are wondering where the poodle came from, well a women was walking her dog and I thought it would be perfect to photograph with Taylor’s dress. I went ahead and asked the women if I can photograph the dog for the shoot, and she agreed. She was super nice and the poodle was well behaved! All in all, it was a lovely bridal shoot.
