RALEIGH BRIDAL PORTRAITS| CHANDLER

August 24, 2021

I absolutely love shooting Raleigh bridal portraits! Not only do you get the opportunity to get more practice in front of the camera before your big day, but you also get to put on your pretty wedding dress! Your Raleigh bridal portrait session is also an excellent time to schedule your hair and makeup trial so that you can see how everything will look with your dress on and in pictures!

We shot Chandler’s Raleigh bridal portraits at the Highgrove Estate in Fuquay-Varina which also happened to be her and her fiance’s wedding venue. I always love shooting here, it’s so beautiful and just lends itself to gorgeous portraits! It was a hot summer day when we shot these, so we spent much of our time indoors.

Chandler literally looked like a Disney princess in her strapless ball gown from New York Bride and Groom in Raleigh! I loved all the tulle, and how her cathedral length veil coordinated perfectly with her bridal ensemble. Flowers on Broad Street in Fuquay-Varina provided a beautiful bouquet that fit’s Chandler’s bright and vivacious personality so well! She wanted to incorporate her and Daniel’s alma mater into the wedding day somehow which led to her to choose Carolina blue as one of her main wedding colors. I love how the various hues of pink and white contrast so well with the pastel blues!

Flowers on Broad Street did such an amazing job on Chandler’s bouquet! I love how it pops!

Tulle ball gowns have my heart, and will always make for gorgeous images! I love the movement they offer!
