Trash the Dress- Maria & Nathan

A trash the dress session is great way to get more amazing photos at great locations. It's an excuse to wear that gorgeous dress and go out on location to capture fun and artistic photos that you would never have time to do on a wedding day. After the dress has made it through the wedding and reception it is usually quite dirty on the bottom. Before getting it cleaned and preserved or just shoved into the back of a closet, why not take it out for a trash the dress session? The session can vary from getting the dress a little more dirty to getting totally into a lake or stream. Maria was willing to do anything, however the weather didn't cooperate. It was freezing and so windy, however the overcast sky was perfect for portraits. Luckily this location had plenty of shelter from the wind and we took lots of breaks for Maria to warm up.

Maria and Nathan were married last month at the Historic Courthouse in Stillwater, MN. I took them to Raspberry Island in Downtown St. Paul. There is a ton of great variety on this tiny island.

Amazing skyline views...


Plenty of water...

Huge pieces of drift wood, or I guess you would call them "drift trees"?

I love the MN Boat Club. The doors are so cool.


A very modern look at the band shell and the metal stairway.


It's never to late to pull that wedding dress out and head out to a cool location for a Trash the Dress session!
