Her friend had an old wedding dress from the 1920's, so we used it. Gorgeous dress...

Everything about this photograph works very well. The tones and textures provide a vintage feel without looking overly processed. The circle of light is framed by the flow of the dress and the position of the model with her hand up gives the feeling of motion, pulling the viewer into the image. The ceiling and chandelier at the top then lead the viewer back to the model and the circle of light. The model engages the viewer with both her expression and her movement, beckoning all who enter to a different feel and time.

Taken all together, we have an excellent image - well-planned and well-executed.

This is definitely the best wedding dress photograph I have seen yet.

I know that I can not claim that it advertises the tradition nor the emotions involved around it. But it makes a hell of a visual and would make just about every bride candidate consider such a dress.

Wonderful image. There is a perfection in such smallest of details and timing. I can not believe it was a timer shot image. Unbelievable.

Thank you for sharing it with us!

Thank you, I really appreciate the feedback I'd love to do a shot like this for someone's actual wedding. Maybe a bit brighter light though, haha.

Well since in such a light we already have the most perfect result.. it would be wiser to search for different lighting

The wavelength thingy right?
(Confession... this image had appeared as a search result and it had pulled me so much I just had to see the rest of your works.
I hope that would be a motivating enough compliment )

I have a Nikon camera that I use for work (they own it) so I occasionally borrow it to do whatever.

Glad you like it, thank you
