Introduction: The moments leading up to ‘I do’ are filled with unique anticipation and emotion. Capturing the ‘getting ready’ phase is a vital part of telling your complete wedding story through #WeddingPhotography.
Main Content
This stunning image captures a beautiful bride during her pre-ceremony preparations outdoors. A fair-skinned woman with her hair in a bun, she wears an elegant #WeddingDress, holding a #DriedFlowers bouquet and a transparent umbrella. It’s these quiet moments, amidst the backdrop of the day unfolding, that hold so much feeling.
The Vision Behind the Shot
Focusing on the bride outdoors allowed for natural light and a sense of calm before the joyful rush. The choice of a transparent umbrella added a delicate, almost ethereal touch, while the detailed bridal look – from the off-the-shoulder dress and silver necklace to her carefully styled hair and makeup – highlights the meticulous preparations. The #driedflowers bouquet adds a touch of unique personal style, perfectly complementing the autumn setting.
Client Experience & Value
The ‘getting ready’ moments are often some of the most intimate and emotional of the day. My approach to #BrideGettingReady photography is to capture these feelings authentically – the excitement with bridesmaids, the quiet reflection, the intricate details of the dress, shoes, and accessories. These aren’t just photos; they are treasured memories of the anticipation, the laughter, and the love shared as you prepare for your forever. Investing in professional photography for this part of your day ensures these fleeting moments are preserved forever, adding depth and richness to your full wedding album.
Technical Approach
This image was captured using my trusted Canon EOS R5 with the versatile RF 24-105mm lens at 35mm. A setting of f/5.6 provided a lovely depth of field, ensuring the focus remained sharp on the bride while allowing the background elements like the building and foliage to provide context without distraction. A quick shutter speed of 1/250s froze any potential movement, and a low ISO 100 ensured maximum clarity and minimal noise, capturing the scene just as it was.
