February 8, 2012 / bridal session wedding
Jacksonville Bridal Photographer
I’ve been holding on to these images since December. Colleen & Will’s fabulous River House wedding was last weekend (and there’s lots of delicious images to share from that very soon) which means I can finally share Colleen’s bridal session!
I love to shoot bridal sessions. I really, really LOVE them! It’s such a special time in a girl’s life and I think it’s completely appropriate to embrace every moment of being a bride. All too often, the wedding day simply does not permit the chance to do a dedicated bridal shoot. There’s usually a strict timeline, lots of hustle & bustle and to top it all of, wedding day jitters! This is exactly why the bridal session is such a great idea for the bride to be. The session is the perfect time to do a trial run for hair & makeup. I always recommend professional hair and makeup for my brides so it’s good for them to see how they photograph, making sure it’s perfect for the big day. Plus, it’s another excuse to put that gorgeous gown on and have some really beautiful, classy shots to capture a girl when she’s never looked or felt more beautiful.

Dana – Love all the pictures of Colleen & Will’s wedding. The bridal shots are out of this world. How do we order copies of the bridal shots?
Thanks
The photos are absolutely beautiful…you did a great job. You have certainly captured Colleen’s natural beauty!
As usual…you have captured the moment. Beautiful bride!!!! Always a pleasure to work with you.
My new daughter’s inner beauty is even greater than her outer beauty and I want to say that I love her very much!
WOW.. beautiful photographs Dana! These are amazing.. I especially love the 5th one where you shot through the orange tree!
As mother of the bride it is hard not to be partial to the subject but your images have captured the outside and inside of Colleen. We are so thankful that you were the photographer for this very special event.
Thanks ladies!
Stunning Dana. Gorgeous imagery.
Beautiful Dana! The bride, the location, the lighting, the captures!
