Why You Shouldn't Short Change Your Bridal Photography

By Andy Garcia


I was chatting to a couple recently and they are what I would call "natural lovers." They simply know how to love sincerely. They tease and laugh and joke and talk effortlessly like they can go on doing it forever. It was uplifting. There was a one hundred per cent good opinion on my part for their surety to tie the knot shortly.

But both of them come from humble backgrounds and both possess the youthful romanticism to make it on their own. Beautiful. Even in the shoe string budget, I side with them that the bride deserves a decent bridal photography, the way it is her rite of passing from singleness to a union that will stand through time and forever.

This came from them, actually. When a lot of people are compelling them to reserve doing business with a competent photographer for the wedding day itself and just set aside the bridal photography to acquaintances and volunteers, they could not be won over. The stunning couple said, they may not have an elaborate function, but they surely wish to spend money on the photographs, including bridal photography.

I could not reprimand them. I'd have decided exactly the same way. Bridal photography is a tender manifestation of a life a maiden lays before the hands of her elected partner and companion. Beauty has to be exposed not only from the outside but more prominently from the bride's heart. Again, no trumpet blast, no costumes, no heavy make up is required. In my approach to bridal photography, all I ever call for is a bride who has in her heart the confidence, the certainty, along with the unchanging way towards marrying that one man.

So, a white picket fence, one or two green grass on the foreground, a pink t-shirt, as well as the incessant and delicate breeze of cool daybreak air brushing against her cheek-- that was all I needed for a heaven-inspired bridal photography in a shoe string.
