Waaaay last year when Stephanie and Rob, who were married this past May, talked to us about doing their wedding, one of the first things Stephanie asked was if we would do a Trash the Dress session. Uh, yeah! Trash the Dress hasn't really taken off around here so we don't get asked to do it very often. We were really excited that we found a bride (rather she found us) who was willing to do this. If you're not familiar with Trash the Dress, check out this cool blog that shows some work from various artists and explains the philosophy behind the movement.
Last week we met Stephanie and Rob at the Worlds Fair Park where we quickly did a u-turn when we discovered a festival going on. We moved to the backup plan, Volunteer Landing, and it ended up being a dream spot. Not too many people, nice light, and lots of water! So here's a collection of some of our favorites...
I played with some textures on this one.
Danielle asked me to post the "before" of the above so you can compare the two. Let us know what you think!
Fountain fun.
They said the water was cooooold!
A wall of water...
That we made them walk through!
A high pressure foot massage.
This was my absolute favorite!
For the record, this was their idea. I would never ask our clients to climb treacherous wet rocks. I might drop hints, but I'd never ask. ;)
But what a great idea it was!
We had such a blast!
Well??? What do you think? Admit it, you want to trash your dress now too! In reality though, nothing was really trashed, just soaked. Danielle used to work at a bridal shop and said that most cleaners should be able to get something like this back in shape. Now if you want to go rolling around in the mud or take up paintball, that might be a different story. So come on, lets go out and play!
Take care everyone!
