Bridal portraits

Maybe the photographer can edit the photos to include later photos of the bouquet. Alternatively, you could have a different bouquet for the photos.

Don’t worry, your photographer is going to direct you. And if you want, you could have a trial bouquet made for the photos- then you would have the option of seeing how your bouquet will look the day of the wedding, and making any changes/adjustments if needed.

I don’t really want to spend extra money on a trial bouquet. I guess I just want reassurance that the portraits will look okay without one.

I thought I’d update this, because I had my portrait session recently and just got back proofs. I’m so incredibly happy I did it, because I got some gorgeous pics and am even more excited for the big day!

You look so relaxed and angelic (it probably helped to do a separate bridal shoot to enjoy that time). Yay! 🎉

View Quoted Comment Thank you! I do feel so much calmer about the big day (tomorrow!!) knowing I know how everything goes on, everything fits, I have everything, etc. And it was great to be able to enjoy just the dress without having to worry about everything else that goes on.
