Lava Hot Spring Idaho Wedding Photographer {AW Bridal Session}

AW bridal reached out to me and asked if I would take photos of one of their wedding dresses, and of course I said yes! First thing I had to find was a model and there were so many girls who volunteered, but finally we found someone who was able to model that was local and willing to play dress up for a few hours!

Preparing for a bridal session is an exciting process that allows you to showcase your unique style and capture timeless memories. Start by selecting your bridal attire well in advance. Ensure that your wedding gown is cleaned, steamed, and free of any wrinkles before the session. Consider trying on your ensemble with the accessories you plan to wear, such as your veil, jewelry, and shoes. This will not only help you visualize the final look but also give you the opportunity to make any necessary adjustments to your outfit or styling.

Next, coordinate with your photographer about the details of your session. Discuss the location, time, and any specific poses or themes you'd like to explore. If you have a particular vision in mind—perhaps a romantic garden setting or an elegant mountain backdrop—be sure to communicate this clearly. It can be helpful to provide your photographer with inspiration images that resonate with your style, giving them a clearer understanding of the aesthetic you wish to create.

Finally, consider your bridal beauty regimen leading up to the session. Schedule your hair and makeup appointments to achieve your desired look, and try to have a trial run if possible. On the day of the session, bring along essential items such as touch-up makeup, a brush, and any necessary styling tools. Stay relaxed and enjoy the process—this is a special moment meant to be cherished. With thoughtful preparation and open communication with your photographer, your bridal session can become a beautiful and memorable part of your wedding journey.
