Jen and Charlie wanted “something different” for an engagement session as part of their wedding photography. So, I suggested a little twist on “Trash The Dress” photography which we’ll just call “Trash The Couple” photography. It was a PICTURE PERFECT morning. The best part about doing this type of photography at sunrise is that lots of fuss about hair and makeup really isn’t necessary. You’re going to get wet and messy and in this case stung mildly by little jellyfish that seemed to be everywhere. Jen got stung, Charlie got stung, I got stung (a lot). These weren’t painful stings though. It was like being tingly all over wherever the water touched, so the jellyfish were small, but numerous and fortunately not too potent. (in the nettles department)
This was an absolutely fantastic photo session! Jen and Charlie had a BLAST and I managed to keep my cameras dry for a change (since the waves weren’t too rough). I know at some point I’m going to go under with a camera, but so far I’ve managed to keep my feet under me even when getting bombed by waves while concentrating on shooting the pictures. (LUCKY!)
Jen did a solo Trash The Dress back in May too which came out awesome. She just re-used the same dress. $19 went a LONG way here (which was what the dress cost at the thrift store). The tux was cheap too! Gotta love it!
Here are some of my favorites from this session:

I am in a perpetual state of catch up! I do the blog posts as I find the time because my 1st priority is processing the wedding pictures and designing the wedding albums (which have been hot and heavy lately). I’ve done 6 albums in the past few weeks. That’s quite a lot in that short time period. I’m going to post some weddings not up here yet for August and also some great vacation pictures too.
Check back soon!
