Just did a bridal today at the Gaylord. Unfortunately, there were quite a few Xmas decorations around (kids style ones) which the bride did not want in the pics (obviously). Also, it was really crowded with Cowboys/Packers fans, so we weren't able to do a lot of shots in the main atrium area.

These look pretty good. To bad about the Christmas decorations though.
We shot a wedding there last month before all the decorations went up. It was quite nice! | | | |

That would be cool to do a wedding there. I had to really do a lot of closeups while I was there, which was ashame. One spot she was hoping to shoot at had an electric train and other decorations. | | | |

Very nice images. I have such a long way to go before attempting anything like a bridal.

Leslie, you did very good in spite of the limitations. A good inspiration for the rest of us, look around and make use of what you are given to work with when the original plans fall through. I like the giggle in the third shot, even with the hair under the nose. I think it is great when you can make the bride laugh. | | | |

Hahaha, isn't it though, Marco? It was funny, people kept stopping wanting to take pics of her or with her. She looked like a princess. One couple thought she must be Tony Romo's sweetheart.
Thanks, so much, Laurie! I caught that while she was walking up the stairs to another spot. Luckily, it came out ok.
Thanks, Steve! That laugh was not something I was expecting, but I grabbed a quick shot when I saw it. | | | |

I know they have many trains all over the place out there this time of year. It looks like you could of gotten at least part of one in a photo.
Surprised to hear about the no cost but that's what happens when you have connections......I guess.
I think it's a pretty cool place to shoot a bridal myself. You did a great job on these as always! | | | |
