Jackie's Bridal Session | Jules Ko Photography

Wedding days are so packed and scheduled to every minute, with many loved ones wanting to spend time with the bride and groom, there might even be a traffic delay or a weather glitch.  When all that and more adds up, even a long wedding day will pass by in a blur for the bride and groom.  Bridal sessions (known also as re-shoot-, or trash-the-dress session) are a photo session that takes place at a date later than your wedding.  It can be a day after, or it can be a month to a year after.  All it takes is the bride (and groom if he’d like in a suit) with her wedding dress, and a beautiful location.  It’s a photo session in wedding attire when the bride and groom are rested, have a little more time on their hands, may want a location different then their wedding day (urban vs. nature), or may even want a shorter, simpler dress then the actual wedding gown.  With a bridal session, we can have more fun, and not worry about wrinkling the dress, or try a glam pose or two.  In the case below, former bride, and fellow photographer Jackie had a blast trying out bolder fashion accessories to her wedding gown.  A big thanks to the Linden Place, RI for the beautiful location, and John LaRoche for Blue Guava for the fabulous bouquets.  For the previews sneak peeks, see here.

Oh, bird cage veil, why did you become so trendy after my wedding day?  =) Jackie has a ballet background, so it was so fun to incorporate bridal attire with the other ultimate feminine symbol of ballet slippers.
