My favorite time of the day to shoot is sunset.  The warm glowy light drizzling softly across the Santa Barbara waters is not only breathtaking…it makes my little heart do a happy dance!  Even more beautiful than the sun rays fleeting into a pink and blue sky were the bohemian brides that splashed through the waves in this pretty Santa Barbara sunset session.  Meaghan, Bree and Briana looked stunning dressed in flowy bohemian gowns and relaxed flower headpieces.  At one of UNITED’s incredible shoots, I had the opportunity to photograph them playing on the beach across from the Four Seasons.  A big thanks to Chad DiBlasio for leading the shoot. You are AMAZING!  Check out some of my favorite sun soaked images below.

Meet Bree.  I couldn’t get over how gorgeous she looked in this short veil with flower detailing!  And a wheat bouquet…perfect for any bohemian bride.  🙂

Meaghan’s hair practically glowed in the soft Santa Barbara light.

Briana’s head piece might have been my favorite!  Filled with full white peonies and roses, it would be great for a garden wedding.

LOVE.

As the sun started to set, it cast a romantic glow over the Santa Barbara beach.

GORGEOUS Meaghan!

Briana’s laugh was contagious!  You could tell she carried such a joy for life.

If you are a bride looking for a bohemian feel on your wedding day, remember to incorporate these three important elements: a flowy dress, pretty flower headpiece, and a carefree spirit!  🙂
