Spinning Brides at San Francisco City Hall
Yes, whenever we photograph a wedding at San Francisco city hall and the bride has the right kind of dress, we ask her to spin! Is this some sort of joke we play on our poor unsuspecting brides? No, not at all. Asking a bride to spin for the camera is just another way of…
