I broke all my own rules here to make this shot, and I love how it turned out! During the getting ready part of the wedding day I normally love shooting with soft light that I can contour and shape. It’s flattering and makes my couples look great! The day I made this picture I had an urge to challenge what I know works and make something new. Here the window is to the right am I’m shooting across the natural light. I love how the depth of the light gives it such beautiful femininity by highlighting the layers of the dress. 🥂 to challenging myself to make something new! . . . #bride #groom #weddingday #dcweddingphotos #dcwedding #weddingportrait #luxurywedding #bridedress #groomstyle #weddingstyle #weddinginspiration #realwedding #reallove #cutecouple #martha_weddings #theknot #washingtonianweddings #mlweddingswashington #insideweddings #sony #sonya9 #sonyalpha
