My goal of the day was to improve my lighting skills. One of them being how to add that sun flare to my photography photos. I finally did it and it was a great feeling. You can see below I threw it in a few of the photos. I was pretty darn proud of myself. =)

In any case, I wanted to say a big thank you to Tracy Dee who put this whole thing together. It was an amazing location with fabulous models and awesome props. The shoot was meant to be a vintage vibe. So as you can tell below, I tried to keep my signature style but I did make some of the photos a bit more “vintage-ish” since that type of look fits best with that particular photo. I am pretty happy with the outcome and hope that you all love it as well.

I had a fabulous time connecting with other photographers. I learned a lot from them and had a lot of laughs with them too. It’s events such as these that I truly value. Dude! I actually ended up with so many favorites photos. I had to try and reduce the amount of faves as to not clog up my blog entry…haha

So here are my favorite photos from the bridal shoot. Enjoy!
