Would You Trash Your Dress Before the Reception?

February 20th, 2009 @ 4:00 pm by Amina @ Still Motion

Last June, I had the pleasure of shooting Natalie and Mike, an awesome couple whose wedding was at a historical site in Vineland, ON.

I had been looking forward to their wedding so much since we first met just over a year earlier. It seemed that right from the get-go, they put all their trust in me, knowing that the more freedom I had, the more amazing their photos (and day) would be.

Their day was quite unique. The girls had a yoga session in the morning to relax themselves, and then they went to put some final touches into their reception decorations. After they were all dressed and done up, they drove to the chapel in a Mustang convertible, giving Natalie’s hair a good dose of adventure. She looked awesome.

But the best part of the day for me was when Natalie and Mike crawled into the waterfall. It was 15 minutes before the reception was to start, and Natalie commented on how refreshing the water looked. Next thing I knew, we were all in the water doing an “on-the-wedding-day” trash the dress shoot!

So a big thanks goes out to Natalie and Mike for being so awesome, and to Cyndal as well, who was a great help in general (she came out and assisted me with some photo-related things).
