A previously submitted image, reworked. I wanted to create a romantic and nostalgic bridal image. Some of you may remember, the story of this dress. I bought it at a flea market for $8. The older girl is one of the teenagers in my youth group, and the little girl is my daughter. I was working on something for my portfolio and they helped me out. The only light used was the available light coming in the church window, the rest of the room was dark except for the other windows.
