One of my favorite shoots that I’ve had all summer was waaay back in June when Nikita, Jaclyn, Yvonne, and Laura all made a trip to Vermont. The four girls traveled from all corners of the country to reunite for a girls weekend and Nikita, being the talented creative that she is, organized a pretty unique photo shoot. The girls had grown up together and in the past four years had each successively gotten married. So Nikki’s plan was for each to bring their wedding dress and live out every girls dream by conjuring up a great excuse to actually wear their wedding dress again!
We met up in Burlington and I had the most fun during this shoot. Not only was it fun to be shooting something so out of the ordinary, but the girls were so much fun too…even after a full day of traveling.
The pier provided us some fun spots.
It’s so great that they’ve stayed friends all this time. I think that’s a rare thing!
Each one also brought along a portrait of their husband which made for a cute shot.
Yvonne’s red shoes were hot!
Needless to say, we elicited a few stares from passersby. But I don’t think there were many whose stares turned into smiles.
These brides were up for anything too, so I threw them into a few of my favorite funky urban spots.
And I was so psyched when they were even up for a trip into the neighboring skate park. So many great colors and I love the contrast of the brides vs. the grungy backdrop. No they didn’t bring their own skateboards…how could anyone resist loaning their board to a woman in a wedding dress?!
Clockwise from top left is Nikki, Jaclyn, Yvonne and Laura.
They even pulled out their acting skills…
Four happy ladies…
…who totally rocked during this session.
I can’t thank these women enough for getting my creative juices flowing and for being so much fun! You ladies are awesome.
