Christine Arnold Photography in Palm Springs

This close-up wedding shot beautifully captures the intimate details of the couple's attire and the lush setting. The bride’s hand delicately holds a small, tightly gathered bouquet of white roses and greenery, wrapped in an elegant ivory ribbon. The greenery adds a fresh, natural contrast to the soft white petals, while the stems remain neatly exposed, showcasing simplicity and refinement.

The focus then shifts to the couple’s feet, standing on vivid green grass, which appears soft and sunlit. The bride's shoes—a pair of classic white pumps with a sturdy, block heel—exude timeless elegance while complementing her intricate lace gown that drapes gracefully just above her ankles. The detailed beadwork and shimmer on her dress are faintly visible, hinting at its delicate craftsmanship.

Next to her, the groom stands confidently in polished brown leather dress shoes that pop against his tailored light grey suit. The subtle contrast between their footwear—the bride’s ethereal white heels and the groom’s earthy brown shoes—adds a natural balance and harmony to the image.

The vibrant, sunlit grass acts as a perfect backdrop, enhancing the contrast between their formal attire and the laid-back outdoor setting. The play of light and shadow adds depth, while the intimacy of the shot—showing just the bouquet, their feet, and the lower portion of their clothing—feels candid and personal. This image encapsulates the couple’s quiet connection and the simple, beautiful details of their wedding day.
