Bridal portraiture

Not every engaged couple that come to book me requests a documentary. As my portraiture is more known than my documentary work, some couples just like to have their portrait taken on the day of their wedding.

That's also the case with the couple I photographed a little while ago.
The lovely (pregnant!) bride and groom wanted to go to into the woods for this particular session, which made me happy as I love that particular forest! I regularly photograph there too.
Totally loved the bride's dress too, not a typical bride's dress I'd say.

Also, I believe this is the first time I'm showing a Vanitas by Viorella Photography session!
My goal is to have Vanitas' website up and running before december, by the way.

Followers from Facebook might have already seen this photo below. A simple postcard to announce the marriage!

There's no other way to say this other than that the Dutch weather has been shit*. I missed all oppertunities (like there were so many...) to do shoots with blossom or magnolia trees because one day several weeks of pouring rain causes all tiny flowers to be dropped on the floor instantly.
But, no reason to be sad; because there will be new chances.... Next year.

I haven't had much time to shoot in studio instead either, because I'm preparing everything for Vanitas by Viorella Photography...
I really wish I could release more details regarding Vanitas... But I won't! You'll just have to wait and meanwhile keep an eye out on my Facebook page where all news will be announced.

In other news, June is less than a week away (time flies!) and with or without the launch of Vanitas, I'll have some great stuff to release then anyway.

* Actually, it is really sunny and warm outside while I'm writing this. For the first time since a long, long time I don't have to put the heater on! I want to go work outside! I wish there were such things as portable iMacs... Oh wait. ;)

Vanitas... Coming soon

Really can't say anything yet. But hopefully soon I can reveal everything.
