Metamorphosing the bride in the get ready

TRANSFORMATION WITNESS by THE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Bride seen through the blurred shoulders of two friends in a composition of the wedding photographer in Portugal.

The bride gets ready for the metamorphosis. It is funny that something we do for a living can change us and even if it is only for several minutes. As a wedding photographer, I am present during the transformation process of the brides, and, with sincerity, it is one of the parts of the day that, photographically, I like the most.

First, because I am in a universe that, out of this process, is not aloud to me, which is a subject to another text. But the photographic interest surpasses the photographer, working in these events because it is a real process of transformation that would delight any lover of catching the light with a camera.

Starting, most of the time, with the simple Good morning, we have not started yet, it is ok because I start with the dress, shoes, and adornments and when you are ready I will go to you. Next, the wedding photographer enchants with the process that will transform a beautiful woman with fringe nerves eager to leave to a yes with golden rings. A privilege.
