Aghhh so excited I am able to finally blog these! Mindy & TJ got married last weekend & had a fabulous day! While I’m working on those I wanted to share these! About a month before the wedding I shot her bridals! She wanted to go for something rustic & vintage! So an old house was the perfect backdrop for this!

When she got there & pulled her dress out of the bag I was like “OMG!” It was beautiful! I loved so much combining the old house with the new pristine dress! Perfection! I brought my lil mini antique kids settee I bought in Texas last summer too! Muchas gracias to Carrie of CarrieCakes for coming out & helping me with my couch! She lives right down the road & got us access to the house for the shoot!  There is no way I’d have been able to get that thing up those narrow stairs in an old house! It was insanely hot for March & the cool wind blowing through those old windows was like heaven!

Now when we pulled up her mom & future mother-in-law had never seen the place. I could see the look of “what the…..” written all over their faces! Eek! We pull up to an old falling down house & I’m about to take her daughter in her wedding dress inside to shoot! Probably not what she had in mind! Sure it’s all about the bride & what she wants, but I always aim to try & please mom & mom-in-law too! So when they saw the first few images on the back of the camera & were in love I was thrilled! They both agreed it was a great location! Yay! Happy moms=happy me!

We wrapped up in the bright yellow canola fields! And the dress didn’t even get dirty! :D I love shooting brides! Everything that day was perfect! The light, the house, the dress, the bride, the color…everything! I get so excited when shooting is so effortless & just comes out amazing!

Here are my faves from the day!

Carrie THANK YOU again for taking time out from your busy baking schedule to come help me! Wouldn’t have been able to have done it without you!

Mindy these are some of my favorite bridal pics! Thank you for walking on glass, standing on rotten porches, dealing with a gazillion bees, jumping ditches in your wedding dress, looking like a million bucks & working it like you’re the next America’s Next Top Model! :D You’re AWESOME!! Can’t wait to show off your wedding!
