You heard it right here.... | Client interview | Atlanta Boudoir Photographer
It's the season for engagements (and hot chocolate, and long lines at the mall, and pine-scented candles, and sweatshirts that hide the extra pie-weight). And wouldn't you know it, with engagement season comes wedding season and wedding season brings brides!!!!! Funny how that happens.
These past couple of months have been packed with women coming in for their OWN boudoir session with the intention of giving the images as a wedding gift. It's such an amazing honor to be the creators of one helluva personal gift. Each bride has a unique story and style, so 'veil' pictures are never the same and the recipient always has a different reaction. My favorite trait about bridal boudoir, however, is that our bride's' 'gift for someone else' really becomes a gift for herself.
Read on to hear about this lovely bride's boudoir experience with us!
