YOU GUYS – It has been KILLING me to keep Chelsea’s Bridal Portrait Session at The Vineyard at Florence under-wraps for the past month, because it EASILY makes it onto my favorite portrait sessions list, and you’ll quickly see why! Her wedding was this past Friday, and now that she is officially Mrs. Shelburne, I can share these images! (Hopefully this will help tide everyone over while I work on getting the wedding blog post ready!) 😉
Chelsea and I went to UMHB together, and I was so honored last fall when she has me to be her wedding photographer. I had so much fun with her and Spencer at their Engagement Session in Salado this past February! Chelsea is a natural in front of the camera, so I was already looking forward to her Bridal Session. Then told me she wanted shoot out at The Vineyard at Florence and I got even more excited! This gorgeous venue had been on my bucket list to shoot at for a while, so add in a beautiful bride with hair and makeup done by Shannon Nicole , a stunning floral bouquet by The Flower Girl, and the prettiest golden hour light – – it was PERFECT!!
Two of her bridesmaids, Jenna and Kate, also went to UMHB and came along to help at the session, and it was so fun! They all grabbed a glass of wine while we waited for the sun to set a little more, and I got to wander around the property and scope out portrait locations. (If you follow along with my Instagram stories, then you got to see a little bit of what I was up to!) Once Chelsea was dressed and ready to go, we took some photos around the courtyard area, along the road and then finished up the session with sunset photos in the vineyard. I have way too many favorites from this session, so get ready to scroll for a while…
