Dreamy fall bridal portraits at camp spearhead
When Ashley told me that she wanted her bridal portraits at Camp Spearhead, I was so excited. I knew the fall foliage in the mountains would be the perfect backdrop for a bride in her wedding gown. Ashley stunned in her lace bustier a line dress with wide, lace off -the-shoulder straps. Her veil gently flowed down the train of her gown and her white cascading bouquet was a throwback to the traditional bouquets of the 80's and 90's, which I personally loved! It was such a beautiful accessory that you don't see anymore.
Golden hour session in nature's color palette
We had hoped that we would have golden hour photos but the day of the session was overcast. It wasn't anything to worry about though because the deep red and golden foliage took center stage. Each vivid color helped make the bride the focal point of the photo. The air was crisp, the leaves were at their peak, and every corner of Camp Spearhead looked like a watercolor painting brought to life. From camp cabins, to open meadows, every setting gave us a chance to capture stunning portraits that felt warm, romantic, and entirely her own.
