Kaitlyn's Romantic Outdoor Bridal Session in Thibodaux, LA

I'M SO EXCITED THAT I CAN FINALLY SHARE KAITLYN'S BRIDAL SESSION! EVERY LITTLE DETAIL WAS PERFECT.

FOR THOSE WHO ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH BRIDAL SESSIONS, LET ME EXPLAIN.

THE ACTUAL ORIGIN OF THE "BRIDAL SESSION" DATES BACK TO EUROPE WHERE ROYALTY WOULD WEAR THEIR BRIDAL ATTIRE AND HAVE AN OIL PAINTING COMMISSIONED BY THE BRIDE'S FAMILY AS A KEEPSAKE. IM NOT ENTIRELY SURE HOW THIS TRADITION ENDED UP IN SOUTH LOUISIANA, BUT I DO KNOW THAT IT USED TO BE RARE TO HAVE A PHOTOGRAPHER AT YOUR WEDDING. THIS IS WHY THE BRIDE'S FAMILY WOULD HAVE THEIR DAUGHTER GO TO A PROFESSIONAL STUDIO AND HAVE A BRIDAL PORTRAIT MADE SO THEY COULD HAVE A HEIRLOOM TO PASS DOWN FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION. WE HAVE CERTAINLY COME A LONG WAY SINCE THEN, BUT BRIDAL SESSIONS ARE STILL A HUGE THING HERE...AND I'M GLAD IT IS. ASIDE FROM THEM BEING A FUN AND RELAXED WAY TO DOCUMENT YOUR BRIDAL LOOK BEFORE THE WEDDING, IT ALSO SERVES AS A TRIAL RUN TO SEE YOUR COMPLETE LOOK PUT TOGETHER; WHICH ALLOWS YOU TO SEE IF YOU NEED TO MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS BEFORE THE BIG DAY. I THINK IT IS SUCH A JOYOUS THING AS WELL.

WE PHOTOGRAPHED KAITLYN'S SESSION AT A QUAINT AND PRIVATELY OWNED HOUSE IN THIBODAUX LOUISIANA. WE STARTED THE SESSION WITH A GLASS OF CHAMPAGNE (THANKS MR. TOMMY!) AND HAD SO MUCH FUN. BRIDAL SESSIONS ARE AN ULTIMATE GIRLS DAY AND I JUST ADORED BEING AROUND KATIE AND HER BRIDE TRIBE. SHE HAS SO MUCH LOVE AND SUPPORT AROUND HER AND IT IS NOT SURPRISING TO ME AT ALL. KATIE IS KIND, HUMBLE AND SO BUBBLY. SHE IS ALWAYS SMILING AND CARES SO MUCH FOR EVERYONE IN HER LIFE. EVEN WHILE WE WERE BATTLING LIKE A MILLION MOSQUITOS, SHE WAS STILL HAPPY AS EVER! I'M JUST INCREDIBLY HAPPY WE WERE ABLE TO WORK TOGETHER.

SHE TRUSTED ME COMPLETELY AND WE SERIOUSLY MADE SOME STUNNING PORTRAITS. DAVID IS AN EXTREMELY LUCKY GUY TO HAVE HER AS HIS TEAMMATE IN LIFE. THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING ME TO BE YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER. IT HAS BEEN SUCH AN AMAZING JOURNEY WITH Y'ALL AND I CANNOT WAIT FOR MORE GOOD TIMES AHEAD.

HER STELLA YORK DRESS FROM TOWN AND COUNTRY BRIDAL IN NEW ORLEANS WAS AMAZING. THE SILHOUETTE OF HER DRESS WAS FITTED TO PERFECTION AND THE DELICATE SATIN TRAIN KEPT THE ELEGANT LINES OF HER GOWN SUPER ROMANTIC BUT STILL FORMAL. Kaitlyn Bridal 103
