Best Bridal Portrait Photographer in North Carolina

Bridal portraits are a formal picture of the bride in her wedding dress, usually within a few weeks or days before the wedding in the studio or at a location of your choice. Sometimes a couple will choose an engagement session over a bridal session but with our packages, both are included so there’s no need to choose!

If you’re announcing your wedding or plan to have a wedding album, having a bridal portrait will come in handy. Some brides don’t consider themselves photogenic or simply don’t like being in front of the camera, but I assure you that having bridal portrait done will show you just how beautiful you are.

When trying to get these on your wedding day, there might not be enough time or you’ll have an audience of family members.

When Is the Best Time to Have A Bridal Portrait Done?

Having your bridal portraits done depends greatly on your announcements, wedding dress alterations, and hair and makeup appointments. If you’re announcing your wedding in the newspaper, you’ll want to find out how far in advance the bridal portraits need to be submitted. Secondly, contacting your wedding dress provider or the company in charge of alterations to find out when it will be ready.

It is highly recommended that you have your hair and makeup done professionally before the bridal session. We’ve found that you can maximize your wedding budget by scheduling your bridal hair and makeup trial run to line up with your bridal portrait session. This saves you an extra trip and additional expense. Not only will it save you money, it will match your wedding day and help work out any issues.
