1950's Bridal Portrait Bridals

This bridal session is extra special. Ellen wanted a bridal session done to honor her mother and grandmother. She sneaked her mom’s wedding dress and veil from the attic, along with her grandmother’s headpiece to wear for the photo session at the same church where her parents got married. She also brought her mother’s bridal portrait and the results are a sweet homage to these great women in her family and uber coolness thanks to Kelly from Kellan Studios.

    I wonder who that is in the picture, her grandmother? Amazing that it fits her so well. Love it.
