The architecture at the Salt Lake City library is, simply put, stunning. The beautiful staircases, large windows and quiet setting makes it the perfect place to take portraits (and capture a few stolen kisses!) For this particular bridal/groomal session, we started off with a few photos of Sonee by herself, and then surprised Ry with a "first look."
For those of you who aren't familiar with the concept of a "first look," it is when a groom sees his bride-to-be for the first time dressed in her wedding attire. It's typically done sometime before the wedding ceremony (either at a bridal session or the morning of the ceremony) so that the photographer and couple can document that magical moment. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone who is getting married. It's a beautiful thing.
We ended the session at the International Peace Gardens to add a little greenery to their photos, and it was the perfect time of day. Not too sunny and not too cloudy...the best lighting a photographer could ask for!
Coming up the stairs...
the big reveal!
you can just tell they are in love.

ReplyDeleteThank you Cate. I agree with miss Sonee, they do look WONDERFUL and magical at the same time. Paul agrees, and now sees why the first-look is so important. Thank you for capturing their love through the lens. Karlene
