Grand Marquise Ballroom bridal portraits

I was so excited that Torri wanted to have her bridal portraits photographed at the Grand Marquise Ballroom. Having bridal pictures done before the day of the wedding allows the bride the opportunity to know how long it will take to get into the wedding dress, to make sure the wedding hairstyle she has chosen is perfect with her dress, and what girl doesn't want to get all dolled  up in a gown she is only going to wear once. 

It was my first time at the Grand Marquise Ballroom and definitely a place I want to photograph again. Torri and I actually met after she booked with another wedding photographer so we were both sad, but at least I had the opportunity to photograph her maternity, newborn, and bridal photos.

Senior portraits in Raleigh, NC

It was a great change of pace to get to do Dylan's senior portraits. Dylan wanted to use his bow and hunting gear for the pictures so I knew I wanted to do something creative with his senior photos. Man O Man do I love how these turned out. Enjoy.
