You might have heard of ‘Trash the Dress’.  It’s a movement in wedding & portrait photography in which the bride, or the bride & groom, decide to take to heart the idea that your wedding dress is only going to be used once.  If that’s the case, there’s a great opportunity after the big day to take some time to have slightly more adventurous portraits.  Get your feet dirty, your dress sandy, your hair wet, whatever!  Much as we adore the idea, we’ve always found the words ‘Trash the Dress’ to be hard to explain to our brides & grooms.  It’s not so much about physically ruining wedding dresses as it is about fashion, being creative, and having fun in front of the camera without the other stresses of a wedding day.  However, to avoid confusion, we’ve decided to abandon the name ‘Trash the Dress’ completely.  Instead, we’re in favour of Fearless Brides, which we think says it all

Wendy was entirely fearless today and happily complied with every strange place she needed to stand, and even took getting wet & sandy in good humour.  We had a lot of fun taking these, and looking at the pictures we got has been even more fun!  On to the pictures – enjoy!
