Tori's Bridal Portraits // Smithfield Wedding Photographer

Oh my word, y'all...it has been the hardest thing to keep these portraits under wraps for almost 2 months now! Tori was an absolutely glowing bride, both on her wedding day and during her bridal portraits.

There is going to be so much history behind this, and I absolutely love that we were able to make her bridals into a story. We took these pictures on her parents' property, behind the house they are moving into this week. It excites me to know that one day, Tori will be able to show her children her bridal portraits, and tell them she took those where grandma and grandpa now live. What a legacy.

Tori is, beyond a doubt, gorgeous. More than that, though, she glows with love from the inside out. With her mom, sisters, and friends standing beside her as she posed for pictures, Tori's life was so clearly full of love already, only to be made better by Zac standing by her side now, as her husband. 

Sarah's Bridal Portraits // Virginia Beach Wedding Photographer

Gah this was such an amazing day! The light was perfect, Sarah was gorgeous, and the chilly weather just let us add a pop of color to a white dress. I'm so glad I can share these, and provide inspiration to you if you're thinking of getting bridal portraits done!

If you don't know what they are and why people get them, bridal portraits are pre-wedding portraits of just the bride. This way, you can make a big print of your favorite and put it at the reception on your big day! I truly wish I had thought of this when I got married - after all, my wedding dress was my favorite dress ever, and I only got to wear it once!

Sarah was absolutely gorgeous, and a pro at posing. It doesn't hurt that she's actually a photographer as well, so she knows a thing or two about how to work it in front of the camera. Enjoy bridal portraits from a chilly but gorgeous day!
