Promos // Gilded Bridal.

We are SO excited to share this post! Our wonderful former wedding client Susan is opening a new bridal boutique called Gilded Bridal in the Glenwood South neighborhood on Boylan Ave. in downtown Raleigh.  AND IT’S GOING TO BE FABULOUS. We think it will really offer something new and different in the local wedding dress department, and we are thrilled that we got to play a part in it! This shoot was to get good promo pictures to help with the branding and the website. All of the dresses and accessories in this shoot will be available, plus a ton more. And we can testify to the fact that Susan has great taste, so. :) HUGE THANK-YOUS GO OUT TO:

Promo // PNC Downtown Raleigh Movie Series

Super happy to photograph the promos for an event organized by the Downtown Raleigh Alliance each year: the PNC Downtown Raleigh Movie Series! For a window of time in the summer, they bring you free movies downtown in City Plaza. It is pretty wonderful. There are food trucks, a DJ, the opportunity to shop around locally beforehand, and just hang out. Once the movie starts, it’s beautiful sitting out there in the plaza lights! No, they aren’t paying me to say this stuff, we just go a lot. Here’s the schedule of the movies showing this summer: http://www.downtownraleighmovieseries.com/.
