Dora and Don were married last December in a private ceremony. So private, in fact, that I was the only witness! (Click here for photos from their wedding ceremony)
Although they had set a date for a larger wedding and she had purchased her dress, they decided not to wait and so they went ahead with their vows. It was wonderful, beautiful and moving…but it left one problem: she had a gorgeous dress just sitting in the closet. So, that in mind, we discussed having a bridal session. She was eager but wanted her groom there also. So we made a plan for a “first look” so that we could capture Don’s face as he saw Dora in that gorgeous wedding gown, and then we headed to the mountain for some beautiful shots with awesome scenery. Here are a few of my favorites from their session:
