We often tell brides-to-be to do something fun and unique for their bridal shoot. Yes, I know… it’s a test run for hair and makeup and you want the photos to look classic forever etc etc. but you will have SO MANY PHOTOS of yourself in your dress the day of looking stunning and classic, that I prefer to think of the bridal shoot as the ultimate styled out version of you- if you could do anything you wanted on your wedding day. So why not wear some awesome red shoes, or a feather in your hair with some massive pearls, throw on some striped socks even- just DO SOMETHING AWESOME!
…Alex did. Totally did. She went 40′s style, and I have this little extra affinity for that era, so it was extra fun for me too. All of them were shot inside the famous boutique AVIA hotel in The Woodlands, TX and scrolled on the small screens outside her reception a week later. Due to the general privacy of the bridal shoot (what if he saw??? eeek!) they never made it to the blog. So here they are! So proud to finally share. :)
