Trash The Dress: Downtown St. Pete

Yesterday we did a trash the dress session with Tracey in downtown St. Petersburg. She brought the most awesome array of props and accesories with her so we were able to do so many different locations. Our first stop was outside of Ceviche in the crosswalk where we gave a map and told her to pretend she was late for her own wedding and they came out great! We also did a runaway bride set out side of the First United Methodist Church downtown (where Charlie Crist got married). After stopping at some garden areas along the way we ended in a fountain on the waterfront that Tracey didn't even hesitate jumping into and I am so in love with the way the pictures of her floating came out. Here are my favorites:
















If you are considering a Trash-The-Dress session, know that yours doesn't have to be as extreme as this, do don;t even have to get dirty at all. It can just be a nice opportunity to get some more portraits in a more creative setting. Every Bride after seeing these says, "I don't think I could do that". But surprisingly, Tracey's dress was fine and completely dry before we even got back to the studio!
