We did a number of poses in her white bridal lingerie—a bustier, garter
belt, and white stockings—however, her choice for his gift was basically a
nude. Shot from straight above, Barb laid face up on the train of her dress.
We draped her cathedral-length veil over her otherwise naked body to soften
the lines of her body and partially conceal it. She was so proud of the image

signed an album with her favorite images and we made a wall portrait of the
image described above for her bedroom.

really “hot” image of the three of them together (facing page, top right).
They wanted the portrait for themselves, but they also wanted one for each
