I knew when I was on my way to photograph Belinda + Kims wedding that it was going to be an amazing and fun day.. First of all, the girls were at a nearby salon getting their hair and makeup done. B.A.M Salon was beautiful. Usually I would visit the boys first, but when the bride and bridesmaids are getting their hair and makeup done at a salon, it’s usually easier to go to the salon first. First of all we took some of the expected shots. Makeup being done candidly…

 

But then I had the idea to get out the animal masks and take some wedding photographs that make absolutely no sense whatsoever. The beautiful, professional, and serious feel of the makeup and hair salon made the crazy masks look even more hilarious.

And of course we had a cow of a bridesmaid! (No pun intended!!) *winky face*

Belinda had a hard time containing her laughter as her hair was done by a lion…

And of course here are a couple of photographs of the whole scene coming together. Does this make you think of an album cover for a band??

Don’t worry, you will see some more beautiful and classic bridal preparation photographs coming up shortly, but for now, here are some of the groom preparation photographs.

Let’s get those ties on boys!

 

Better straighten that hair 😉

You want to make sure the groom doesn’t mismatch his buttons!

Get the little man into his suit jacket!

Now “look smart and thoughtful.” Look at those handsome faces!

Now let’s head back over to the girls to see how the bride and her bridesmaids are doing with the bridal preparation.

Here is a side by side shot, the brides shoes and dress waiting for her.. and the grooms suit jacket, tie and shoes waiting for him. Belinda wore 2 wedding dresses which can be seen in the next photographs.

Belinda hand painted these gorgeous shoes herself. What an amazing job she did.

A sneaky shot of Belinda and her gorgeous daughters before the wedding.

The emotion of her dad seeing her in her dress for the first time.

Belinda can look stunning in just about anything, including a hula hoop. #bridesinhulahoops

 

Belinda and Kim touch hands in the corridor before the ceremony. They can’t see each-other even though it looks like they can.
