Jane’s Bridal shoot | Newport Beach wedding photographer
October 3, 2011I think the Velvet Underground sang it best…”Sweet Jane!!!” She truly is a sweet-heart and I’m SO looking forward to her and Griffin’s wedding day at the Parker Hotel. So…Jane tells me about this incredible Elizabeth Fillmore Ballet Noir dress that she bought and that it’s going to be altered to be the cocktail dress at the reception. She fell in love with another dress and decided to make this one the “party” dress. By “altered” she meant, “chop” the dress and I was shocked because the dress is insane! It’s going to look amazing but my response…”Wait! Before you send it to the tailor, let’s shoot you in it!” Jane thought this was a good idea! I was so inspired shooting her. This is a great example of a beautiful woman who is relaxed, confident, and isn’t worried about whether she looks good, her fun self knew she would look amazing. It’s much easier said than done, but works so well when it happens. I have to say thank you to the most amazing Amanda who rocked the make-up and Sarah the most excellent hair stylist. We’ve worked on some fashion shoots together and well, I think we’re a pretty great team! Many thanks to Ford for making this amazing 65′ convertible Mustang and to the owner, Grant, for sharing it with us. Thanks to The White Dress for their support and carrying such fabulous gowns…and last but not least…to God for creating “Sweet- Jane!!!” to whom without her, this shoot would not have been possible. P.S. Don’t worry Jane said it’s ok to post this before the wedding day, Griffin’s been told to keep his eyes away from my blog!
