Trash the Dress Photography

I shoot all different kinds of things, but my greatest interest is people. Not just people but capturing them in unusual and different ways. Trash the Dress (often referred to on this site as TTD) is one of my favorite types of photography. Trash the Dress is sometimes referred to “next day” or “day after” photography. It is so called because of a growing number of brides have chosen, rather than box up and preserve their dress…never to be worn again, to get back into their dress for a day of intimate, and unusual photographymore perfectly preserving the dress and the bride capturing and preserving the youthful beauty of both. Some brides view it as the ultimate commitment to their new husbands as a statement of never needing the dress again. While others consider it as a way of releasing the stress and pressure of all of the planning and preparation and stress of the wedding day.

Not always, but often times the dress can be hand washed or machine washed in a gentle cycle (don’t try it with actual silk). My wife and favorite model, has a couple of wedding dresses that we’ve done several TTD sessions in and they have survived very well.

The choice to shoot a TTD shoot is often an understandably difficult one for many brides. It is a choice from which there is no return especially if the dress suffers any harm. I strongly recommend that if a bride has any reservations at all she should refrain. However, if after seeing some of the shots that can be achieved either through viewing the photos on my site or others... (search Trash the Dress, there are literally thousands of brides out there doing it every day) if you are inspired, and interested, contact me, I can help you get the shots you're after.
