Bridal portrait

I’m so excited to be back for Our Love Story series, after taking last week off, to share my bridal portraits. Cory and I spent a few days at the beach so this little blog got put on the back burner. Y’all understand, right?

Since Mary Kate {our photographer} is no longer shooting, she recently sent me my engagement and bridal images for the blog. Once I started looking through my bridal portraits, it occurred to me that other than the canvas portrait my parents have and a few poses I had printed for the reception, these have only been seen by MK, me, my parents and probably Jessica {my MOH}.

I feel like a new bride who can finally share all their awesome bridal portraits! It takes me back to almost four years ago and the happiness I felt looking at these the first time!

We shot my portraits at my reception venue which has a restored house on the property that serves as the bridal suite. It’s got awesome hardwood floors, a fabulous front porch and a gorgeous view back behind the house.

I remember MK asking me if she was sure I wanted to sit down and I was all “Yeah. Totally. My dress will be fine.” She looked blankly at me for a second and turns to my mom and says “Are you sure it’s okay for her to sit down?” Haha!

I had so many wonderful pictures to chose from, it was nearly impossible to pick one for my canvas but this was the one I went with. It was my gift to my parents and they proudly have a 16 x 20 {I think} of this baby hanging in their dining room!

Check back next Wednesday for all the fun happenings like the bridal brunch and rehearsal dinner the day before our wedding!
