Despite a bit of a rain scare to begin with, I think everyone had a blast getting to practice shooting in manual mode and taking control of their settings. It was a mix of Canon and Nikon users, and I have to give a big thanks to the more seasoned Nikon shooter who was in attendance--Nick. He definitely helped figure out how to change camera settings for the newer Nikon shooters.
Throughout it all, I felt like jumping up and down because it was so much fun getting to do a Trash the Dress session. I would love to do more of these--so, any past brides up for the challenge?? It is a TON of fun, trust me! If you don't mind getting your dress dirty (when are you going to where it again, anyway?), you should definitely consider it.
Now I did make one goof--I completely forgot to take a picture of the group! Duh! I guess I was in "follow the white dress" mode and totally focused my lens on Amanda and Tim (who were awesome--did I mention that?). Ah well, we'll have to do it again sometime!
Things started off easy enough in a fun field.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Amanda and Tim for being such great sports!
Wow! I totally love photo #5 and the ones of them sitting on the rocks with her dress in the water. Just amazing! Okay, now I am determined to schedule a session like this! Wonderful wonderful...
ReplyDeleteWow, I really love the shots of them in bare feet, dress in water, sleeves rolled up for the groom. They'll talk about those shots forever.
