Dreamy Boho Bridal Portraits in Frenchtown, NJ | Daria

What a perfect evening this turned out to be for Daria’s bridal portraits!

I met Daria when her mom attended the Frenchtown Wedding Crawl on her behalf. Daria was far away at the time, but luckily her mom was able to join us and have some fun! And even more luckily, Daria’s name was selected as the winner of an engagement photo session with me, and a gorgeous flower crown handcrafted by Kelly Grace of Paper Floral Co! (Be sure to check out Kelly Grace’s stunningly realistic florals. She can customize everything from a single stem, to re-create your bouquet, to build an entire floral statement wall of flowers that will last forever.)

Daria wanted bridal portraits of herself to mark the occasion of her wedding, which was just two days away. We quickly connected on the look she wanted to achieve and then took a leisurely stroll at the edge of the Delaware River in Frenchtown. The light was quickly fading, but that is honestly my favorite time to work. At that hour, with the sun setting over the ridge, the light changes minute by minute. I think the soft glow perfectly suited Daria’s elegant boho chic dress and flower crown, don’t you?
