Trash the Dress

This couple was married at the courthouse but never had a wedding, and certainly no wedding photos. They wanted it all, What can I say, I love to do these kinds of shoots, where the bride wants something unique and creative and wants to get the dress dirty and get wet. This very hot humid mid summer day was perfect for it. At the beginning of this shoot, we started at Nags Head Pier, using the shade from the pier for some beautifully lit shots, then we got wet, including myself and a camera, well worth it.

Not your typical Engagement Shoot

Jessie and Billy are getting married in April and were looking for something unique and different for their engagment. The engagement shoot lets you get to know your photographer, start to feel comfortable with them and get to know their style, AND it can be whatever you want it to be, have fun!

Everything but the mainstream-A New Years Wedding

beachprod — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 20:28:56 +0000

Rebecca and Zack choose to married on New Years Eve at sunset and have their party last through the evening. From the groom and groomsmen wearing converse sneakers to the trash the dress special gift Rebecca made for her future husband, this rocker couple did not go by the books - and their event turned out incredible! Their photographer Julie Dreelin suggested that they do most of their photographs beforehand, so they had a special meeting, then the bridal party came out to entertain them and photographer Julie Dreelin with more group and candid photographs while sipping on champagne. Thank goodness they did because they got off to a late start and the sun set right as they were saying their vows. This breathtaking wedding venue Abilena Mansion right on the sound in New Bern, NC has attracted quite a response from traveling brides. This bride was from hours south but chose this location because it is centrally located and right on the sound.

Trash it!

Trashing your Wedding Dress

Rebecca's fiance was not into the engagement pics so she decided to use her beach visit as a sexy trash the dress shoot. We suggested doing what she did and go to the local shop "Baree Station" for this $20 dress that she used. It worked perfectly and didn't break the bank. The gaudy necklace and bracelet she wore worked perfect to set the scene for the photos.

Trash the Dress-Jen and Mark May 3rd 2009

From the very beginning Jen knew she wanted to do a trash the dress session the morning after the wedding. She did not know that talking about it with people at the wedding at the Hilton Garden Inn made them all want to come and check them out the morning after. Needless to say, although at first a little embarrasing have the entire wedding wake up early to check out this "trash the dress" it actually became great fun and a huge end to a beautiful event!

Yes, they really jumped into the pool. This is what you do when your wedding gets rained out, have fun with it! Katie and Jim's wedding day ended up a huge and memorable success-ending with a smores pit - what a great idea!
