Bridal Portrait

Here is an example of a wedding “Devin Style!”

If you like weddings that are unique, you will love these photos.  This wedding took place in Virginia.  The motif was a southern lawn party.   Invitations called for attire to be “Southern Sassy.”

The bride was…….my mother in law!

They set up a tent, croquet, mint julips, bananna pudding, all things southern.

The end

Exceptionally romantic at heart, he needed her betrothal to be exquisite.

The Romantic

His version of exquisite was defined by the betrothal itself, not the pomp surrounding it.  She deserved a memory to be cherished for a lifetime.

The scene was set upon a mountaintop.  The ruse elegant and simple.  “Please, meet me and enjoy the sunset together.”

The Scene

The coffee was warm, conversation easy.  The natural back and forth chatting of man and woman.

The romantic  had two tricks with which to surprise her.  One, a joke engagement ring made of fishing line.  The other, his coupe d’grace of exquisite.

He enlisted the services of a photographer to forever preserve the images that were soon to be burned into her memory.  A surprise to last a lifetime.  Hidden out of sight, her betrothal was becoming a keepsake.

The Joke

The photographer recorded the beauty of new love as a silent movie unfolded before him.

The Ring
