Kim and Mike trash the dress?

Posted on December 3, 2009

Ok, so when Kim told me she wanted to take part in my post-session offerings, she didn’t want to necessarily TRASH her dress, I told her not to worry, brought a towel and we were all good! If you remember their wedding then you know that we were kind of rained out on the day of! We had plans to go to downtown Long Grove and take advantage of all the neat areas and shops, but the weather had other plans. All in all it worked out in the end! Kim contacted me and said she and Mike really wanted pictures still in Long Grove in wedding attire, so Kim got back in the dress, convinced Mike with some coffee and there we were! Thankfully on the early November day, it was warmer than it was in October! Who knew!? Kim and Mike are the type of couple I love to photograph, they just act themselves and don’t need much direction, and well, just generally FUN! Their wedding turned into one of my new shiny sample albums (of course I’ll post when they come in!!)

So without further ado, some post-wedding photos!

At some point in this one, they realized I was laying on the ground. Seriously. Laying on the ground. I apparently scared a lot of Long Grove by doing this as well!

Trash the Dress!

Posted on November 6, 2009

I met up with Jamie and her fun hubby to trash her dress! Once we got it wet we realized that it was HEAVY once wet and didn’t go fully in water for fear she’d not be able to carry it at all! We went around Millennium Park for this one and I did get to see a lot of it that I normally don’t!

Naperville Trash the Dress | Kaitlin

Posted on October 14, 2009

I’m on a roll today huh? (I still have a wedding and an engagement to put up today on the blog!!) I decided to do this trash the dress in downtown Naperville and it was like going back home (I lived in Naperville for a little over 5 years!) I knew all the nooks and crannies of the riverwalk where we did this trash the dress! Kaitlin was being stared at a lot for walking around in her wedding dress and me following photographing her. I’m sure she felt like a model!

Kaitlin then changed into a short white dress to get wet in! She didn’t want to hurt her wedding dress too much but I hold it wouldn’t have hurt it at all!

Chicago Trash the Dress | Lauren

Posted on October 14, 2009

Lauren participated in my Trash-the-Dress-Palooza event and I’m finallly getting around to uploading and editing these! She’s been super patient because I’ve been so busy! I just love trash the dresses! I wanted to edit it sooner but still had so much that was going on all the time! Sometimes I call it a post-session because some people don’t want to fully get crazy with their wedding dresses.
