So my last post was about bridal portraits. I was "saved by the bell" when my friend told me another family member had hired a professional to take her daughter's wedding photos. But as soon as I got off the hook for that one, an additional opportunity presented itself: another friend asked us to take pictures at her wedding... and this was the real deal. The actual vow exchange. THE moment. Sure, I was nervous. But I had my talented friend with me, so I knew (rather, I hoped) between the two of us we could capture some good ones.
This was a casual (and quick) ceremony along the shore of Back Bay. Just the immediate family attended, and to be honest I felt a bit like an intruder on a very personal and intimate moment. But I have to admit I really, really enjoyed every minute of it. It's so moving to see two people so clearly in love commit to each other. The bride was simply radiating with happiness, and when someone has that pure and honest glow about them, it really makes it easy to capture.
As far as I know, she didn't have formal bridal portraits done. So here are a couple of my attempts to catch her by herself.
This was immediately following the ceremony. She looks positively beautiful in this shot.
