Phoenix Bride and Groom Magazine, more published pages! – Bridal Fashion Photographer

Posted on June 19, 2010

I have been waiting few months for this magazine to hit the stands. It was hard to find because they actually don’t start selling it until July 1. I got 4 pages from two separate shoots. One of which I showed on the blog already not knowing that it was getting published! So you already had a sneak peak of two of the images. The other two are from a shoot with some Amsale gowns. I will post more from that fabulous shoot later (one was even worn in a movie!). In the meantime, here are the four pages I recently had published in Phoenix Bride and Groom Magazine. Thank you Chelsea, Justine, Brita and Stephanie for being elegant models (even at midnight….). Sim Agency for loaning me these beautiful girls and Destiny’s bride and Linda Wagner for always showing me love and allowing me to capture your beautiful gowns.

I knew the day I saw this tub I was going to put a big white dress in it. Chelsea’s skin tone was perfect for this look in another Amsale gown. Location: private residence

Posted on April 7, 2010

I know…I have been so bad about posting. I have a few good reasons.

1. A few of my best shoots are either getting published or being considered for it. So I can not share them until they are out. But that’s all great news!

2. I am lucky to get sleep in lately.

3. I’m PREGNANT! Yes that hes been a little damper on productivity but I am feeling much better and more like myself. :)

Okay so to the big reveal. I am so blessed in that I get to do some amazing things with my job. Recently Linda from Destiny’s Bride called and asked if I wanted to shoot the amazing (and fresh off the runway) Monique Lhuillier gowns. The thing was they had to stay in the store. I don’t think any of them had seen the light of day. From runway to trunk-show.  It posed a little challange of how to get a beautiful shoot, indoors at night. As you know my style is natural light. Hey, I am always up for a challenge and have been working on my lighting work. I wanted something a little more “moody” that really let the gowns be the focus. I called in some support from my good friend/photographer Cindy Price of Lily P Studios and some of my most favorite models. The generosity that is shown to me from the models down to the stylist is very humbling. Having models and stylists out until all hours of the night just to capture some images with me is the best gift.

Thank you to SIM Agency (models), Ruca (hair) , Linda (makeup-styling), Destiny’s Bride, Chelsea, Justine, Brita, Stephanie, Cindy (best assistant, brainstormer, counselor and friend ever)….you all bless my life and work.

Let’s start with an outtake of the set up. So many gowns…so little space! Yes that’s Linda on touch up and it’s about 9PM at this point. Cindy is hiding behind the light.
