About The Urban Bride

This group is for your bridal models and/or real brides whom you've photographed in an urban setting. UPscale or DOWNscale urban looks are both welcome.

They can be gritty & grungy TTD shots or have an uptown Manhattan, 5-star luxury hotel look. Just make sure your image says the city in the look and feel. I.e. brick walls with or without graffiti, old churches, abandoned warehouses, run down buildings, street lights, crosswalks, billboards, alleys, stairways, fire escapes, anything that was shot "somewhere" in the city before, during or after the wedding.

We ONLY want to see your most elite and elegant work. Only submit images you are proud of, something you've worked on to create or took the time to frame and compose well. What we don't want is "snap shots" of brides who just happen to be walking through a crosswalk -- unless it's done with this kind of brilliance.

Below are some of the better submissions with the kind of look we are striving for:




Chris Hanley's work blows me away!










































Shots aren't required to be geo-tagged, but it is highly encouraged. You can review a short geo-tag video here.

The groom and/or a few others can be in the shot too, but the bride MUST be in the shot and should be an equal or featured subject of the photo.

Interior shots should have something in them that makes it look like it was shot in the city.

For the time being, I will be the final arbiter of which photos meet the criteria.

We want REAL female brides or bridal models ONLY please. No tränsgender brides or säme sëx weddings please. Keep in mind, this is a SAFE group and remember, it HAS to LOOK urban. Beach shots just outside of the city don't look urban even though the city may just be across the street.
