White Stuff

Here at BBP we are constantly surrounded by white stuff:
  • wedding dresses
  • tuxedo shirts
  • tulle veils
  • etc.
But today we are surrounded by white stuff of another order. SNOW! It's a dirty word to me, way too much sand in my shoes to find winter at all amusing, lovely, or even peaceful. 5 inches of snow fell outside the studio doors today, bring on the shovel! With the bitter cold temperatures, the snow may well hang out to wear out it's welcome (which was none too warm in the first place!!!!)

Trying to shift gears, how about some other white things we love????? Thinking of a warm and lovely destination (DisneyWorld) we show a couple of 'magical' gowns by Kirstie Kelly for the Disney Fairy Tale Weddings.

Interesting bodice treatment------

Simple and clean---

A little different twist---

I think the shot above just LOOKS Disney, doesn't it????

I'm a sucker for lacy jackets----- very Grace Kelly don't you think???



All I can say to the above is................ wow!

More Family! Welcome Megan & Charles!!

We're so happy to be able to welcome another couple to the wedding family at Bobbi Brinkman Photography! Megan and Charles, come on down!

Megan is the sister of one of our grooms, the fabulous Matt of Andi and Matt fame! Now Megan tells me that she is the BEST family member---- and we have no reason not to believe her. As Andi and Matt are now expecting their first sweet baby perhaps they are otherwise occupied and will not argue the point?

Regardless, we're really pleased to have Megan and Charles as part of the family! As always, it is an honor and a privilege to have the opportunity to capture their wedding with "Images from the Heart..."

Lovely Cakes--- from Martha Stewart

It must be the beginnings of the February doldrums because my mind is thinking CAKE! Not just any cake of course but wedding cake. Lovely, luscious, sweet and wonderful, loaded with frosting and tinted a pretty color. Yum!

I thought I'd share a few of my favorite cakes from Martha Stewart (thanks Martha!)----

A Charlotte of a cake------- I can imagine a tiramisu-ey cake maybe with the ladyfingers around the edge?

LOVE this clean and geometric cake, elegantly monogrammed and presented so simply. I bet it tastes as good as it looks!


A croquembouche wedding cake! How fabulous is this!!!!! On top of what is undoubtedly a yummy cake layer comes a fabulous presentation of sugary delicious croquembouche(s)! I have no idea in the world how you would SERVE such a magnificent frippery of cake but it would be fabulous!

Enough said!

Mr. & Mrs Haug-- in their glory

We were absolutely thrilled to have a recent two page spread in the Real Weddings section of St. Louis Bride magazine---- and Patrick and Jennifer Haug's wedding was a perfect fit. Gorgeous details, an exquisite reception and a very attractive bride and groom, I mean how can you go wrong? The spread is in the recent issue of St. Louis Bride, hope you have a chance to take a look and we know you will agree that it is the best issue ever from the cream of the STL bridal magazine crop---- hands down.
