Carrie Lea had a very unique vision for her wedding – starting with her wedding gown. As she described it to me, I knew it was going to be a masterpiece. Her gown was a custom creation from Heidi Elnora Atelier. The choice of blue color and fabric was a nod to her favorite Disney princess, Aurora. The gown seamlessly blended modern elegance with a touch of fairytale charm, mirroring Carrie Lea’s own timeless beauty.

Inspired by her December wedding date, Carrie Lea envisioned a veil that echoed the enchantment of falling snow. The intricate pearl detailing on the veil achieved just that, creating a delicate cascade that captured the essence of winter magic. As a photographer, it was a joy to translate this vision into timeless images. Carrie Lea’s wedding was a testament to the power of personal touches, from the custom gown to the snowfall-inspired veil. It’s these moments that make being part of a couple’s special day such a rewarding experience.

Japonica Path proved to be the perfect canvas for Carrie Lea’s portraits. The various shades of blue in one of the rooms appeared almost tailored for her session, enhancing the fairytale ambiance. The careful curation of the venue complemented the intricate details of the gown and veil. The entire session is truly unforgettable and will be cherished for years to come.

Carrie Lea, I cannot thank you enough for asking me to be part of your beautiful wedding story! It was an honor to photograph you so many times and I hope to photograph you and Dalton again in the future. You are an absolutely stunning bride – inside and out! Thank you again for making me part of your special day!
