When I first spoke with Jennifer about her wedding she was ALL OVER doing a Trash The Dress session. The dress she’s wearing in this article is not her “real” wedding dress. I shared with her the method to inexpensively obtain a dress to use for this type of photography and she was able to get the one she wore for this session for $19. (then $15 for some quick alterations to take it in). So, only $34! That’s cheap!
I was a bit concerned about the weather last night, because it didn’t look too promising, but I got up at 4:15 and I was on the beach setup by 5:00 (that’s in the MORNING) to catch the pre sunrise light. It was only 55 degrees and the wind was whipping across the sand making it pretty uncomfortable to be there, but at least we all got a free exfoliation.
The water was WAY TOO ROUGH to do a complete dunk sequence during the session (not to mention the fact that the water was 57 degrees), but I am REALLY PLEASED with the results from this session.
I am also doing Jennifer’s wedding photography in October of this year. Here are a few shots from the session.

Now you can see that there is a BIG wave coming behind Jennifer, and right about at the point I took this shot I was also saying “LOOK OUT!” at the same time.
Well! I warned her!
Trash The Dress bridal sessions are GREAT fun! (for me too!)
I’m booked solid this weekend, the rest of today and tomorrow, so I’ll post more from those sessions this week as I get them done.
