Formal Portrait Photos

I'm looking for a good photographer in the Raleigh, N.C. area to do a formal studio bridal portrait.  I've come across some great photographers who specialize in on-location shots, but only a few who do studio portraits, which is what I would prefer.  I would love to hear of recommendations if anyone has them before I begin making consultation appointments.  Thanks in advance to anyone who has suggestions!

I would recommend posting this on the local board for Raleigh. Local boards can be accessed from the blue navigation column to the left.

I know traditionally bridal portraits are done before the wedding day, especially if you want to display one at the reception. Here in the Northeast, bridal portraits before the wedding day are not all that common, but a lot of photograhpers will do formal shots while getting ready. This may be an option if you inquire with your vendors.

My photographer set up a backdrop in the living room and we were able to capture quite a few formals. Here are a few I loved and more in my bio. Best of luck in your planning!
