Sarah's Bridal Portraits!

When Sarah told me she wanted something different for her bridal portraits - bright colors, bold backdrops, fun poses - I could hardly believe what I was hearing! Even when I suggested the location, I was sure she would say no, but she sounded excited! I knew that when we arrived there, she would immediately decide she wanted to go somewhere else, but instead she jumped out of the car with her mom as they both exclaimed "This is awesome!!" Every corner we turned, Sarah's mom would say, "Oh, I love that" and it would be an old run-down, nasty shack with a pretty blue wall. I was IN HEAVEN with these two - they both have such an incredible sense of style and they were so able to visualize what I was talking about the whole time and they were game for anything! Here's a few of my favorites!

What a super cute girl! I love, love, love that dress, oh to be able to do my wedding over. Great pics Stacy.

FABULOUS. Man, how lucky are you to have such an adventurous bride? What great colors.

{You should PS off the "el" & leave "Hot" on the one shot. When I was waiting for the full picture to come up, that's what I saw first & I wondered where in the world you found a "Hot" sign!) :)

Great work as always Stacy! I'm becoming a fan. Please clue us in as to the location. Unless, of course, you want to keep it all to yourself. ;-),

And so is the bride!
AWESOME JOB!!!

ok, I have to try to ask again... just one more time...:)
What kind of camera do you use?

Stacy Cross said...

Hey Ginger! I shoot with a 5D, but I actually shot these with my husband's 30D. :)

Stacy Cross said...

Hi Jim! We just walked around East Austin for a while! :)

Ginger Murray said...

Shut up! That's awesome!!

Thanks!

And since I'm commenting again... I have to say that I just love that blue background... Like, I'm-going-to-marry-it type of love.

Ginger Murray said...

oh and... I don't really mean shut up... obviously:) Just to clarify: It's crazy that you shot them with a 30d. And I also think it's awesome that your husband has a 30d and that you both love photography:)
