Trash the Dress Group Photo Shoot!

One of my previous wedding clients organized a group of friends and “knotties” -that’s brides who use the forums on The Knot website when planning their wedding to have a group trash the dress session at Half Moon Beach in Gloucester, MA in September 2009. We had a total of 8 brides, some of which bravely jumped into the ocean at the end of a day of fun photography on the beach rocking the dress. I called the local newspaper to come along and they published a photo of me working as well as a shot of a group of the brides jumping in the ocean in their wedding dresses. Needless to say, we got the attention of lots of passersby as well as some boaters! We brought along Candice French to do the makeup.

Trash the Dress

Trash the Dress? Not usually. It’s an industry term that has caught on to refer to post-wedding photo sessions. The idea is to create a collection of photographs that you wouldn’t have an opportunity to do on your wedding day. We’ve heard from more than a few brides how they would have loved a beach wedding, but circumstances usually prevented that. Most of the time the dress isn’t harmed, other than needing a trip to the cleaners. Trash the dress may be the most commonly heard term, but it’s also called an encore session, rock the dress, drown the gown, day after session, rock the frock, etc. It’s also a time to be photographed without worrying about getting a dress dirty or if a couple just wants more time creating a series of portraits than the normal timeline of a wedding day permits. A trash the dress session is not about destroying a set of wedding garments, it’s about the creation of a bold and unique set of photographs you might not otherwise do. If you want the best of both worlds, keep your wedding dress stored away if you are worried about harming it and get an inexpensive dress on eBay or other thrifty means. We’ve had a number of clients do that and report that the second inexpensive dress they bought fit better than the one on their wedding day!
