How lucky do you have to be to get the opportunity to photograph a bride-to-be as beautiful as this? Pretty darn lucky, I'd say... carrying around that 4-leaf clover and rabbit's foot paid off in the end, I guess - ha ha! I said "bride-to-be", but now it's actually "bride-that-was"... yesterday was Tori's wedding day and so, hurray, I can finally post her bridal portraits! We did them at The Arboretum on a beautiful mid-week morning early this month... we were lucky with the weather, lucky that it wasn't too crowded, and lucky with the fact that the crew didn't mind giving Tori a lift in their golf carts a couple of times... it was just not easy to walk in her 5-inch heels... her shoes were amazing! (Let's just say I'd have more than a strained/pulled gluteous maximus if I tried walking in those shoes... :) ANYHOW... the entire package (beautiful girl, dress, shoes, setting) was... well, picture perfect! And did I mention that Tori's smile can simply light up a room? Icing on the (wedding) cake! Here's to Tori and her new husband, Taylor... may their life together be long, beautiful, lucky, and delightful!
