This photographer uses a nice elegant approach in this image. It is simple in its execution and subtle in the lady's thoughtful expression. A classic portrait.

A natural and telling expression from the bride as she emerges from the cloud of white that is her dress. Could have been cropped a little tighter on the top to make the image a little cleaner.

This is a more straight forward approach of including the church in the background. The lighting makes this work.

This image has nice texture and is not bad tonally. It would have been nice to see the bride's face a little more brought out. Real nice use of natural light and scene to provide a simplistic but beautiful bridal photograph.

The high key lighting makes this a nice image. The bride's face jumps out.

This graphic image with sparse color is both beautiful and different. The form of the bride is distinct and there is no need to be able to see detail in her face.

A modern portrait.

Tight framing helps show the thoughtfulness in the face of the bride. An interesting and successful angle from which to shoot the picture, which also has a background that adds a good element to the image.
