Use your ensemble Dupatta to frame the face.
This style is a huge trend in bridal photography – many, many brides have used this technique to capture their bridal portraits. Get the camera to shoot from below, focusing on your face with the dupatta above your head. Not only does it get a good shot of your face, but also of other jewelry and half the torso.
You could also drape it on your head as a ghunghat. This works best with sheer net dupattas, giving a unique look to the face. Make sure that the border does not cover your face!
The downcast eyes for an elegant look are another fave.
This is a very simple yet impactful bridal portrait variation. It exudes charm and innocence, along with opulence and regality. Have a look at our picks!
Play with perspectives!
Perspectives will add drama to your bridal portrait by bringing movement. This can be brought about by lines, patterns, textures, which are all available around you. Use staircases, arches, hallways and even nature to play with your background.
