Katie's "Marilyn" Inspired Bridal Portraits

I am always nervous when shooting at an unknown location, and was especially nervous when I pulled through the gates of a huge private estate in Mansfield for Katie's bridal portraits. The location was picture-perfect, as was the bride, and I am so thrilled that I was able to capture the "Marilyn Monroe" Old Hollywood inspired look that Katie was going for! 

Katie's natural beauty was enhanced by the soft curls and striking makeup. 

And no Hollywood glam session is complete without a staircase and a baby grand piano! 

Thank you to everyone who helped to make this shoot a success!

Katie & James - Old Hollywood Glam Wedding

Hello to my lovely followers! I have a new goal: to blog more. I am kicking off my commitment to share more lovely images and stories with you all, by sharing some GORGEOUS images and the SWEET story of Katie and James Todd and their Old Hollywood inspired wedding. 

The weather was perfect for the outdoor ceremony, and the light shined through the trees beautifully. There wasn't a dry eye in the house when Katie walked down the aisle in THAT DRESS (especially the Groom, the look on his face was priceless!) 

The decor of blush, navy and gold helped set the tone of sophistication and glamour. 

You can't have class, without a little sass, and the bridal party had plenty of sass to spare! 

At the end of a lovely evening, I stole the bride and groom away from their party for a few minutes to grab a few romantic, late-night shots under the twinkling lights. 

Congratulations, Katie and James Todd! May your lives be filled with happiness!
