Custom Wedding Gown Photo Shoot
I recently had a photo shoot for a custom wedding dress sample I wanted to showcase. Since I love the vintage styles for their glamour and elegance, my inspiration was from a 30′s mermaid fit gown with full skirt starting below the hips and extending into a chapel length train. The bodice feathers a slight halter with modern bust pleats instead of darts, satin ribbon trim and ribbons creating the straps to the back. The silk shantung gown is finished with a beautiful pearl button and loop closure and accented with a vintage rhinestone brooch and earrings. Also featured is the birdcage veil with feathers, pearls and rhinestone center.
I was very fortunate to have Gavin Seim of Seim Studios, Ephrata, WA as the photographer and Leslie as my beautiful model. We chose the Ivy Wild Inn, Wenatchee, WA, a beautiful historic mansion for the location. The day after Thanksgiving was a chilly but sunny day so Gavin got some amazing shots. Leslie was absolutely stunning in the gown and was a real trooper even with the cold weather. My favorite photo is the first photo with Leslie lying on the sofa. It really reminds me of the vintage era movie star glamour.
The gown and veil are available for sale and can be viewed at Signatures Flowers in Quincy. Please contact me for more information if you are interested. I look forward to hearing from you. Chris. www.bridalcreationsbychris.com
