When my friend Trisha asked me if I would be interested in doing a carnival Trash the Dress shoot at the Washington County Fair together, I was ridiculously excited and of course said yes! Jen, who was just married in June, was game to spend one more evening in her lovely dress before getting it cleaned in order to have some amazing images. I also included a few fun outtakes at the end…I couldn’t help myself!
For those of you who haven’t heard of “Trash the Dress” sessions, you don’t actually “trash” your dress. You simply do a photoshoot in it one more time before getting it washed. This allows you to do more creative things that you wouldn’t otherwise do on the day of your wedding for fear of getting it a bit dirty. If you’re interested in doing something like this, let me know and we can discuss some amazing things we can do before cleaning and storing your gorgeous dress away in a closet. I promise, it’s lots of fun and you won’t ruin your dress!
Thanks Jen and Trisha for such an awesome time! And thanks to Bank of Memories & Flowers for donating the beautiful bouquet!

- Trisha will do anything to get the shot! LOVE it!

- We made it into the West Bend newspaper – this is Andy there interviewing Jen about the experience. Between him, Trisha and I there were 6 big cameras following Jen around…it seriously felt like the paparazzi!

- Jen is also a photographer and was playing with the Tilt-Shift lens I was renting while we waited for a moment.
