White Lace & Prada Shoes: Memoirs of a Bride

Pittsburgh Bridal Boudoir Photographer-1

Sounds like a pretty cool title for a book, right? Well, I don't have a book for you to read (you're welcome), but I do have a story to tell. However, what I LOVE about this story is that it's told in photographs. That's what I loved about this styled shoot;  you can watch the story unfold as you go from one photo to the next. She goes from wedding, to the boudoir, to the honeymoon and all in a few photographs. I can just imagine her day as she pours herself into her wedding dress, then smiles to herself thinking about the outfit she'll be putting on later that night, and then waking up to excitedly peruse the Honeymoon Itinerary and take it all in.

For this shoot I didn't want the usual ethereal and romantic. I wanted to go for a bit more outside the box a tiny bit, so that's why you see these absolutely stunning wardrobe pieces paired with black shoes and accessories. I loved the contrast of it all.
