When we teamed up with Elite Secrets Bridal and Elite Design House for the Curvy Done Right campaign—featured in Iconic Bride Magazine—we knew this was more than just a bridal shoot. It was a movement. A celebration of plus-size brides and women over 30 who deserve an authentic, personalized wedding experience that reflects their confidence, beauty, and individuality.
As wedding photographers and storytellers, we firmly believe that every couple deserves to see themselves reflected in the imagery that inspires them—just as they are. Partnering with Elite Secrets Bridal allowed us to highlight two remarkable brides who break barriers in the wedding modeling industry by proving that age and body shape should never define bridal beauty.
The Power of Representation in Bridal Photography
This project was special because it wasn’t just about capturing stunning gowns; it was about showing real brides what’s possible when they fully embrace their confidence and trust experienced wedding professionals. From the very first consultation to the final delivery of images, we are dedicated to providing an intentional, supportive, and empowering experience for every couple we work with.
Our mission is simple:
✨ To help real couples feel confident, empowered, and proud of their love stories.
✨ To showcase that beauty in bridal fashion isn’t limited to one size or age.
✨ To provide a luxurious and seamless photography experience that captures the essence of each couple’s unique journey.
Breaking Barriers in the Wedding Industry
This project is deeply personal to us because it aligns with our ongoing commitment to diversity and inclusivity in the wedding industry. When we planned our own wedding over a decade ago, we struggled to find imagery that truly represented us—a Black husband and wife, deeply in love, searching for a wedding photographer who understood our vision.
That experience shaped everything we do today. We refuse to let couples feel unseen in the industry. Our goal is to create imagery that is as diverse, authentic, and beautiful as the couples we work with.
Curvy Done Right: A Movement, Not Just a Moment
The Curvy Done Right campaign is only the beginning of our collaboration with Elite Secrets Bridal and Elite Design House. This first installment is a bold celebration of bespoke bridal fashion that gives plus-size women the luxury experience they deserve.
💍 Love has no size. Beauty has no limits. Confidence is the best accessory.
