A Texas trail ride bachelorette isn’t just another pre-wedding celebration—it’s a full-on adventure. Imagine golden-hour light filtering through the trees, the sound of hooves kicking up dust, and a group of best friends toasting under the open sky. Now, capture all of that on 35mm film, and you’ve got a bachelorette experience that feels like it belongs in an old Western movie—wild, nostalgic, and unforgettable.
Not every bride wants bottle service and city lights. Some crave something real—something they’ll feel long after the last toast.
For this group, that meant saddling up and hitting the trails. As they rode through wide-open landscapes, their cowboy hats tilted against the breeze. The bride, wearing a white fringe jacket, led the way while her closest friends followed. Laughter echoed against the rolling hills, making every moment of this Western bachelorette party feel even more special.
There’s a reason I chose 35mm Portra 400 film for this shoot. Its soft highlights, warm tones, and natural imperfections made every moment feel even more alive.
Digital photos may be crisp, but film? Film holds onto the soul of the moment. The way the champagne sparkled in the fading light, the dust swirling through the air, and the pure joy in the bride’s smile—every detail felt richer on film. That’s what makes it different.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, we stopped for a final toast. Boots kicked up on a wooden fence, the last rays of light caught in their hair. Unlike traditional bachelorette parties, this one had no rushed moments and no forced poses—just a celebration that unfolded naturally.
That’s the beauty of documenting something like this on 35mm film. Instead of focusing on staged perfection, it tells the story exactly as it was lived.
