Snow White. A Bridal Session.

Most of you know by now that Carla White is my amazing hair and makeup artist. She's taken care of lots of my brides and seniors and made them look absolutely stunning for their portrait sessions. Well, now it's Carla's turn to get in front of the camera... she has been married five years and wanted to do a session, just for fun! We started brain storming and came up with the idea of styling a Snow White bridal session complete with fun accessories, apples, and a mirror. We shopped at Songbirds in Greensboro for our dress... they have everything ranging from brand new, designer wedding dresses to vintage and hard-to-find dresses so it was easy to find the perfect one!

The details :
Dress - Songbirds Consignments
Veil - Voulez Veils by Renee McCardell
Bracelet and flower hairpieces - Petal Pushers Jewelry
Hair and makeup - Carla White

The story begins with our sweet Snow White...





She is lovely, and kind...





...and incredibly beautiful...









Mirror, mirror, on the wall...







... who is the fairest one of all?





Isn't she pretty?









Snow White has been offered a poison apple...





Will she take a bite?











She contemplates ...





... and takes a bite ...







Here is where the story changes a little. Snow White wakes up a little darker ...





... a little more wild ...













Will someone else take the apple now?





... maybe you will take a bite?









Mirror, mirror, on the wall... Now who is the fairest one of all?

I love this sweet moment between sisters...







I absolutely love this photo of the sweet flowergirl, Kealee. She was so patient and quiet while everyone was getting ready!





Caroline was so happy while getting dressed! She was definitely ready to start walking down the aisle!











We saved a few minutes before heading to the church to do some portraits of Caroline alone. . .





Caroline glanced in the mirror while walking out the door and had to stop for a last look at herself. Gorgeous!





Caroline's dad stopped in for a look at his daughter :)







I love these photos of two proud dads watching their beautiful daughters!





Caroline's sister had the best reaction while watching Caroline walking down the aisle...







Married!







I just think this is the cutest photo. A nice little candid in the middle of family formals.



Caroline and Billy had a party bus to transport the bridal party to the reception. It was so much fun! There was lots of laughter, a disco ball, and Journey song sing-alongs. Super fun!



This is definitely one of my favorite bridal party photos...





Some reception detail...



...and some dancing...



Billy and Caroline had one of the best first dances that I've ever seen. It was choreographed and everything!















Showing off that ring!



Oh, you want to see the ring?



Stunning, isn't it?



A few romantics in the Country Club before I had to leave . . .









Congratulations Caroline & Billy!
