Hey ladies
OMG they are in!  Huy, my photographer touched up the first 20 or so. Anything labeled sample gives you an idea of the finished product.  There are so many but if you are bored and want to help a girl out, I am trying to figure out which one will be good for my 16x20 photo for the wedding.  Ah, this is SO exciting and I am so glad I did bridals now!  I just saw that someone else posted hers too so I am off to look at those as well.  This is just too much fun!!

Hair and Makeup by Erin Blair Gobin and photography by Huy Nguyen at f8 studios. Oh and my bouquet from the lovely and awesome Kim May!!

Oh and the reason I am in a coat is that there was NO HEAT inside so after about a minute or two of shooting, he would say, "COAT" and wrap me back up so I didn't turn blue or red!  You can see the bottom few with the fountain.  IT was this Sunday and SUPER cold out!!

Thanks ladies, happy Thursday

    I think sample 212, 253, and 281 are great. Very pretty pics!

    You are getting to use F8? 

    Soooo jealous.

    Ok, going to look!

    ETA:  Ok, 285 made me gasp.  I pretty much stopped considering anything else after that.

    I also love 243 as a headshot, I liked 244--but it's not full length and you're not wearing your veil.  I love 332 by the fountain--but maybe not for your portrait.
    I also like 302.

    AETA:  Did Kim May do K.Hansen's flowers?  They are gorgeous.  Oh, and where were these taken?

    Just wanted to say, WOW.   I don't know how you'll ever choose.

    I really love the one with the blue light in the hallway.

    I am not sure who referred me to Kim May but it was someone that had a wedding in the fall I think.  I just remember writing down a bunch of referrals and fell in love with her and her prices are incredibly in my budget. I had to cut some major costs once I went with f8, that was my major splurge!  The place is the McKinney Cotton Mill I think.  or Cotton Gin. I had never heard of it before.  Ah, I can't decide!!

    285!! 

    I like 281 too actually (the blue lighting) but I am more traditional and that one is a little more edgy.  But you can't go wrong really.  Love them!

    I like 210, 253 and 285. I also love the back of the dress and the one with the two brick walls on the side of you- so cool. Love them all!

    I love 281!  I would pick that one if they were my bridals.  But I agree with everyone else, you can't go wrong with 285.
