"Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue."

"Something blue."

 

A casual friend is giving the gift of photography to her best friend who is getting married. She asked me if I would do some wedding photography for her mature friend's wedding.

 

I am putting together some floral stills and then will take a portrait of the bride and groom to go together as a set. Because of the couples' age, I'm making this a very traditional pairing of images. (This can all be shot at home where I feel comfortable creating something for them.)

 

For now, I am working on the old wedding custom of: "Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue."

 

What the final choice for "Something Blue" will be is up to the woman who hired me. This is one of my favorite outtakes.

 

It's lovely fun to be invited to share in the joy of another couple's wedding! She understands that I can't photograph the "moving targets" of the wedding itself, but she said she wanted me because she likes my florals and botanicals.

 

I feel so happy for the friend who invited me to be a part of the wedding and for the couple.

 

I hope these two women will be happy with my wedding-related floral photos as keepsakes to the special day.

 

Cheers!
