The Color of Love: Pink-Themed Bridal Session by Magnifique Photography

By Tessa Woolf June 15, 2011

Meet Niki. Niki loves the color pink. Like, a lot. When Niki found out she had been selected as Magnifique Photography's "Deserving Bride" (a contest Terra Cooper, owner of Magnifique, offers every year to local brides) and scored a bridal session with the photographer, she knew exactly what she wanted for the photo shoot: a pink car, pink shoes, pink bouquet, and The Sweet Tooth Fairy.

Terra with Magnifique explains:

Niki is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. She was nominated for the Deserving Bride contest by her best friend and you can see why she was chosen. Here is the essay:

"This entry is for my best friend Niki Park. Words cannot express how deserving this wonderful woman is of something like this. She is constantly giving and never receives. She recently returned from her second trip to Haiti working in an orphanage. She has spent her own money, time, and energy to go on countless volunteering experiences. She has been to orphanages in Haiti, Peru, and Ecuador. She has been a part of the Big Brother, Big Sister organization and helped feed the homeless at Thanksgiving. She adopted two families for the Angel Tree this last Christmas and called to say that she was struggling because she wanted to give these needy families so much. She devotes her life to service. In her day to day life she is a special education school nurse for Jordan School District. Now she has found her prince charming and they are getting married this summer. I could find numerous reasons why I think she deserves this, but most importantly she has touched so many lives with her happy disposition and caring attitude, and she has truly made a difference."

I wanted Niki's bridals to reflect her personality and kind spirit. She loves pink, so I was able to borrow a pink Chrysler New Yorker from my friend Brent at Lomond View Gardens Reception Center. She also loves The Sweet Tooth Fairy, so I made arrangements to take some of her bridals in their delicious bakery. Finally, I found some pink blossoms and other beautiful nature spots to show off her natural beauty. I am so happy that I chose Niki to be my deserving bride, because she is one of the kindest people I have ever met.
