Cydni & Kolin: The Wedding

The brief.

Cydni & Kolin's wedding day, photographed in chapters: the getting-ready hours and the details, the garden ceremony and venue, and the bridal party portraits that followed.

The hours before a wedding are the ones most easily lost. The day was shot quietly and closely: the dress in window light, hair and makeup, both sides dressing, the walk down the aisle in the hillside garden, and the wedding-party portraits after the vows.
