Jordan // Fayetteville Bridal Portraits

Friday, January 6th, 2012

Jordan and I went out with her darling friend Chelsea all around Fayetteville for her bridal portraits just days before her wedding.  It was quite cold and a bit windy but we made it though and got some pretty great images to prove it!  Jordan is such a sweetheart!  She is completely full of life and one of those people you are just begging at her feet to be friends with!  She’s a creative spirit who loves photography and painting. Her heart is huge!  She loves animals and has a few rescued pups from shelters.  Her career is all about serving those who need comfort and care as an ICU nurse.  Really…..I’m pretty sure there isn’t anything this girl can’t do!  And I forgot to mention she’s completely gorgeous…….the boy Jordan sure got lucky!

I have seen this ivy covered building a million times and always thought it would make a perfect backdrop someday…..today was finally that day!!!!  So so so glad we used it!  I love how it turned out!

Gorgeous!

Ok I’m not going to fib but the first time Jordan whipped these shoes out I seriously thought it was a bit of a joke.  Cute as they are, I thought these boots were similar to the tradition of making a bouquet out of  all the bows from your shower gifts and using it at the rehearsal dinner, but for a bridal session!  Nope Jordan was very serious about her darling shoes and even wore them during the reception! That’s why she’s so cool!

I just love these black and white images of her!  I think this one on the left is my favorite from the entire shoot!


Enjoy!

What a cute idea for wedding favors or really for any reason!  Check out info to download the template here.

I am so pumped!  All the time I get brides that want to do their own flowers, which honestly usually this scares me, mostly because the only place to get flowers in bulk around here is Sam’s Club so they usually all end up being the same do it yourself flowers.  But wait I’ve found a super cool awesome website for anyone interested in doing their own flowers!!  If you are one of those people I recommend you take a look at this webpage really quick though!  It will help you determine if you really are a DIY flower bride.  Now as for the rest of you.  They sell their flowers in a Grand Box which includes several flowers to create many bouquets.  Here are a few of my favorite wedding flowers.
