Washingtonian Bride and Groom Unveiled
Couture bridal designer Amsale Aberra shared her Kenneth Pool line with a captivated Washington, DC audience at the second annual Washingtonian Bride and Groom Unveiled bridal show at the Mandarin Oriental. Her collection is said to celebrate the bride who commands the spotlight, and this line, according to her web site, “allows her to express a more elaborate side of her personality.”
The atmosphere backstage was fevered but totally under control. I had an opportunity to go where ever I wanted to go and photograph freely. If only every assignment allowed this much freedom. Things moved at a very fast pace but there were some beautiful moments sprinkled in there.
I have to mention that Ted Gibson, who I had a chance to talk with the night before the show, is a very sweet and genuinely nice man. In the first image he is back stage listing to his introduction before the start of the fashion show.
