Several months ago I had the privilege of photographing Katie’s Bridal Portraits at Winghaven Gardens in Charlotte. The gardens are such a unique location as they are situated in the middle of a residential neighborhood in an older section of Charlotte. Katie and her now husband Erik were married on the 28th of July so be prepared for their beautiful photos hitting the blog soon!

The hardest thing about bridal portraits is waiting weeks to share them with the world. Fortunately, with Althea’s Charleston bridal portraits, we only had to wait a little over a week. Untimely alterations, lent for a last minute portrait session. Thankfully it’s January and our schedule allows us to be more flexible.

Althea and her mom flew up to Kleinfeld’s in New York City to find this beauty of a dress. Enjoy!
