On Friday, we photographed April & Neil's wedding…they were up for ANYTHING artsy and non-traditional (which I LOVE) and since they weren't planning on leaving for their honeymoon for a day or two, we decided to do their trash the dress session yesterday. It was perfect timing too…TrashTheDress.com was just featured on Good Morning America yesterday morning and as we were getting ready to leave for their photo shoot, we were watching the TV segment showcasing this new concept in wedding photography…I love being on the forefront of a new trend. 🙂

One bride who was interviewed on Good Morning America said something like, "I said my vows to my new husband, not to my dress" which I thought was perfect. The ides is that you'll never wear the dress again and your future daughter won't want to wear it so this is the perfect way to create some extraordinary photos in unique settings after the wedding. The idea isn't to completely ruin it (usually) but to get it wet and filthy…April will still be able to dry clean it and preserve it, she just might have a few extra stains to look back on and smile years from now after she remembers how much fun we had together yesterday. 🙂

We started their day at the Avon Perennial Gardens and got a ton of pics of them in the creek, getting wet and having fun in the garden area, it was gorgeous!! Then, we went to the war memorial fountain where we took some fun pics of April getting completely wet for the first time in the dress. After that, we went to my aunt's house…she has a beautiful pool in her backyard that was perfect for a TTD session. These are just a few of my faves that caught my eye after downloading tonight…there will be MANY more posted throughout this week as I continue to edit. 😀 Keep checking back!!
The groom…just hanging out. 🙂
Her bouquet was floating the whole time!
Loved this one…she started to grab her bouquet and the dress whipped around. You can see how dirty her dress was around the bottom edges by that time…
More coming soon!!
