Bridal, Trash the Dress

Last weekend I joined 20 other photographers, hair stylists, makeup artists and beautiful brides on a fun Trash the Dress shoot up in Lake Arrowhead. It was such a blast! I froze my buns off but I’m glad I was able to grab some decent shots despite my shivering :)

Thank you, Elizabeth Luna, for putting this together!

Trash the Dress

All I can say is Wow!

I thought Kara and Randy were totally up for anything when we shot their e-session, but dang!… they’re a LOT more comfy now that they’re married! It really is a dream shoot for any photographer to have such willing clients. :)

When we met with Kara and Randy, it was windy and cool in SoCal. I was worried that Kara wouldn’t be able to last one second in her gown, but nooo… she braved the cold, goosebumps n’ all! Randy on the other hand was miserable with his allergies. We had to pause every couple of minutes so he could blow his nose, poor guy! But allergies or not, there was no way this guy was getting his hands off of her!



When I asked Kara if she was sure about going out in the field in her tall shoes, she goes, “No worries… I climb trees”.
Hello! My kind of girl!



I love, love, love this shot!


You can see how windy it was that day!


The sun was sooo high and bright, it was a challenge to keep the details of the gown intact


This photo is so hot I burn just by looking at it! Tssss…


So in love! I didn’t need to coach much ;)


Um, how gorgeous is she?!


Yes, we totally trashed the dress!


One last, just before sunset…


Kara and Randy, you guys were AMAZING! Thank you for the company, the trust, and most of all, your friendship! Love to you both!

Trash the Dress

I just washed the sand off of my hair, and with towel still on my head I rushed to my computer to go over the photos we took earlier today. I’ve been looking forward to this shoot ever since their wedding last month and I must say, these two totally outdid themselves! I have waaay too many favorites that I have got to post at least one. Be sure to come back in the next couple of days for the complete post!
