Higuey, Dominican Republic Trash the Dress: Tourist Market

admin — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 14:36:21 +0000

I broke up the “trash the dress” session posts as we did a 3 part series. Our last stop in Higuey was to a typical tourist market. They had all sorts of pottery, carved mahogany, and colorful Caribbean style paintings. I had so much fun photographing the bride and groom perusing for various souvenirs. At one point, the shop owners brought out a purple alcohol and gave the couple a shot.

I asked the bride, Dana, about her thoughts on Trash the Dress Photography:

The best part of the trash the dress photos was just getting out of the traditional poses and backgrounds to really get a feel of the location we were in. It felt so much more intimate and meaningful to explore the local places and take pictures our wedding attire. Being at the local basilica, knowing how important it is to the Dominicans, was a great feeling, and we had an amazing time taking pictures there and at the other locations. On your wedding day, everything goes by so fast that it is hard to just ENJOY it all. Doing the trash the dress pictures was so much more laid back, that I felt so much more connected to the area and to Matt, and I think that it shows in the pictures

Dominican Republic Destination Trash the Dress Photography

The day after their destination wedding at the Dreams Resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, Dana and Matt requested a trash the dress session on the white sand beaches. These two were tired but braved one last session in the sand. I’d HIGHLY recommend doing a trash the dress if you do a destination wedding and after you see the below photos you’ll agree!

Oh yes they did!

While out in DC I shot a couple vintage styled bridal sessions. The first one below features a Indianapolis Wedding Dress Designer amazing gown. You can see more of Beth’s work on her website and buy on her etsy shop. If you are looking for a custom one of a kind wedding gown, veil, or any sort of gorgeous gown you need to talk with her.

Indiananapolis Wedding Dress Designer: Btrousseau ROCKS!

admin — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 17:49:06 +0000

Last week I met up with Beth Bennett, my favorite fashion designer in the mid-west, to do a quickie “Rock the Dress” mock bridal shoot. The shoot was less than 30 minutes, but with Steph and that dress it was a breeze to get heaps of beautiful photos. You can see more of Beth’s many creations on etsy as well as online at www.btrousseau.com. If you are a bride wanting something really unique I urge you to contact Beth!

The model, Stephanie, had on Beth’s newest creation. It was a lovely tea length lace applique wedding dress that was vintage like and timeless in it’s own right. I hope to see more of these dresses on brides in the near future. I can’t forget to mention the caged veil headband and jeweled headband Beth made. Both were extremely well made and delicate in appearance. I want to shoot more of these gorgeous creations Beth!!!

Indiana Trash the Dress: Bride on a Horse

admin — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 13:37:23 +0000

The day after Erin’s gorgeous wedding in Loogootee, Indiana she wanted to do a Trash the Dress session with one of her horses. She hoped on her horse with her gown from That Special Touch in Columbus, Indiana and rode around the Indiana fields. Some of the trees had already started to turn that golden fiery fall color which contrasted nicely with the horse and Erin.

Indianapolis Wedding Gown Designer: Btrousseau

admin — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 01:09:52 +0000

A couple weeks ago I met with some of my favorite models and a new favorite fashion designer in Indianapolis to debut her spring 2010 collection. The collection has a very bo-ho goddess feel with colors such as wasabi and a salmon number. I can’t explain it as elegantly as Beth Bennett, the designer of B Troussaeu, but the spring collection just asked for movement. You can see her some of her many creations on etsy as well as online at www.btrousseau.com/ Not only does she make wonderful custom dresses that will make you feel like a goddess, she also makes these amazing wedding gowns both fancy and formal along with unique destination numbers. If I had known about her before our Guatemala Wedding last year I would have used her creative dress making abilities.

Onto the shoot, the lovely Stephanie and Tonie graced us with their gorgeous presences and really completed the looks. Stephanie wore the ombre pale to vibrant fire pink number that fit her perfectly. She swayed, jumped, and busted a ballet move to get the dress to show it’s many facets. Toni stepped up next with her wasabi green halter gown and twirled, posed, and shimmied to show off her threads. There were two more looks following which was a lighter wasabi caftan on Steph and a gorgeous shift boho on Toni. Again, they worked the studio creating designer/photographer/model magic.

To complete our shoot, we headed to my favorite location in Indianapolis to get a on location vibe. Enough of my ode to gorgeous dresses and great models… check out the photos as my words can not do these dresses justice!
