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!”

Spanish moss always makes things look so magical! This shoot is beautiful! Love that gingham checked shirt!
What gorgeousness! Spanish moss is so romantic. It’s my favorite!
Very beautiful – the scenery is just amazing!
It’s hard to resist moss-draped oaks! Super romantic!
How great to do bridals after the wedding – when life is a little more calm 😉
