smiling woman in front of mirror wearing white wedding gown and holding flowers

I was shooting a wedding, and people were starting to file in for the ceremony at a beautiful historic mansion. The mansion caretaker let the bride and I sneak upstairs (which was off limits to guests) to take a few portrait photos. The mansion is in the early stages of being restored, so we found some beautiful original details and decor to include in our photos. This is moments before she walked down the aisle.
