We had so many fantastic brides last year, it is my pleasure to bring to you as many as I can get a hold of their photos. Some photographers make it so easy for us to grab a few and Ryan Phillips is wonderful. I was looking for some spectacular shoe shots ( for my ongoing bridal shoe show) and I came across Patricia. Wow she looks glorious.

Patricia and Keith were married at the elegant Balboa Bay Club in Newport Beach September 6th, 2008.




Patricia is a classic beauty….so classic bridal beauty it was. Her Design Visage artist, Julia, applied warm brown and golds on the lid with a sable tone eyeliner…lips and cheeks natural rosy. Patricia chose a straight half up style. I believe it was just perfect.




I love the color background….when Design Visage started in the wedding business 24 years ago, many of the shots of the bride and groom were in front of a fabric backdrop that was grey or some subtle blaw tone…..photograpy has become so creative.



Cute shoes……Thanks Ryan your artistry makes our brides look even more beautiful.
