Audra and Bobby

photography and blog post by john michael cooper
We’ve gone several years without photographing a backyard wedding and this year there is all of the sudden more than a handful. If this is going to be the current fashion of weddings I say “bring it on”. It is such an intimate way to be married and for Audra and Bobby it just doesn’t get more intimate… Except for the few select vendors to roll things into motion, at the ceremony it was just Audra and Bobby. And the reality? Once you are up at the alter you get tunnel vision, the ministers voice becomes quite and the rest of the world around you evaporates leaving you two alone and in the moment. Bobby and Audra: thank you for allowing me to photograph you beautifully elegant and very intimate wedding, congratulations! -.jmc.

Amazing dress by one of my favorite designers, Monique Lhuillier. Her dresses have so much texture that they scream out “photograph me”!  If you want to see more then you’ll have to take a look at Audra’s beautiful studio bridal session
