oak tree and spanish moss bridal session

I love it when photographers step in and get creative with their bridal sessions and that’s exactly what Amanda Lenhardt did for Carla and Justin. She designed the balloon tassels and a bouquet for this newlywed couple who wanted additional portraits 6 months after their wedding!

From Amanda Lenhardt Photography – “Carla and Justin are two people who you can tell are head over heels for each other. When they approached me about doing a bridal session I couldn’t have been more excited! We decided on Washington Oaks Gardens to photograph these two. We wanted to incorporate the organic elements that the park has to offer. I created the bouquet and the balloon tassels to work with the natural beauty of the park. I’m just now becoming interested in floral design and wanted to try my hand at it for this shoot.

After doing this session about 6 months after their wedding, I could encourage all brides to consider this. There’s no rush to get back to your guests and you get to wear your wedding dress again!”
