When you’re both a wedding photographer and a fashion photographer, there is NO BETTER PHOTOSHOOT than a gig that combines amazing couture bridal fashion with a gorgeous bride and groom!! We were over the moon to photograph a lookbook collection for Jana Sofia Bridal Couture in Laguna Beach this past Spring!
We met the designer of Jana Sofia Bridal, Janka Whitaker, 6 years ago when we collaborated on a fashion photoshoot together; over the years we shared a passion for stunning dresses and jaw dropping locations–we were so very honored when Janka asked us to capture her very own wedding in Newport Beach—Janka wore 2 of her own designs, check out her wedding photos HERE!!
The Jana Sofia Couture Bridal collection combines a classic and timeless dress with delicate and sensual details. Her designs range from illusion tops to long sleeves, A-line, ballgown or mermaid wedding dresses, strapless, low necklines and custom hand beaded lace tops, as well as layered organza skirts or A-line skirts with a clean crepe slim-fit silhouette. Choose a wedding dress that you will love for years, without worrying if the style is in line with the current trends. All fabrics are hand picked by the designer Jana Sofia Whitaker. Her couture line is made with soft silk fabric, Swiss tulle and European cotton lace.
If you’re the bride who wants a customized design process when searching for your wedding gown, Jana Sofia gowns transcends traditional wedding dress options, allowing her brides the ability to have ownership in designing the most cherished garment they will ever wear — their wedding dress. Go ahead take a peek and design your own dream wedding gown!
