Bride to Be

I photographed Bonnie Youngman and her mother Terry as they shopped for bridal gowns at Carrie’s Bridal Collection in Chamblee on Saturday, December 10, 2011. Bonnie had already found a dress, a vintage Vera Wang. Unfortunately during the cleaning and alteration process the dress was ruined and so the process of finding the perfect dress for her special day began again. Youngman is getting married in June at the Roundhouse Railroad Museum in Savannah. These are some of my favorite images.
