Friday Favorite!

It's another fabulous Friday at Bridalize and we are excited to feature one of our talented vendors, Mark Hayes Photography!  We are so proud of Mark as we just learned one of his entries placed 12th in the ceremony category within the international wedding photojournalism competition through the Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association.  With thousands of fine art entries from all over the world, it's a great honor to place in the top 20!  

Here is the award winning image taken at Dunafon Castle last summer... 

We love it! These little guys are too cute :)   

"Judges Comment: I like the low angle on the kids walking down the aisle and the photographer captured a nice moment with good gesture. Toning works well here too."

Congratulations Mark!  We are proud to work with you!

Thank You Photos

Looking for a creative way to personalize your post-wedding thank you notes? Have your photographer take a "Thank You" photo on your wedding day! The message can be hand-written on a sign, block of wood or even painted on the back of a parasol. The photo, used in or on your thank you notes is a perfect way to let your guests know that they made your big day special.
