This is no "Trash the Dress" Session

Many of you peeps out there who keep up with the modern trends ever expanding in the wedding photography world have come to hear the newer term "Trash the Dress" which implies utter destruction to a most valuable heirloom...the coveted wedding gown. Here is what image might conjure up in your mind when perhaps you may hear those words spoken...

However, Scott and I understand that "Trash the Dress" is not the most eloquently termed name to evoke romantic images in ones mind, such as this one below. 
We WANT to bring out in you longful feelings of "I want that" flooding your brain and so we sat down, with freshly brewed cappuccinos, donned our thinking caps and thought long and hard, and before you know it we came up with a much better name for this amazing session...We call it "The Hangover". What exactly is this "Hangover Session" you may ask? Well, I shall whisper it into your ear...come a little closer...

You like to have fun. Your wedding day  F~L~E~W  by. You want to wear that gorgeous dress again, without a care in the world. Without a time frame to worry your perfectly shaped brows. This is where we come in. We eagerly plan a day and a time. We make you look gorgeous-again-and then...we create magic. It is usually about 2 hours of complete and utter AWESOMENESS. You will have to endure hearing me constantly moaning and oohing and ahhhing and in the end we will have created an amazing portrait session of you and the one you will love for the rest of your lives together on this earth...We make ordinary locations look extraordinary. And most importantly we capture love, your love, and our love, for each other, for what we do, and for being with you. All of that love reflects through. And yes, I happened to intellectually rhyme that with intention ;-)

So for those of you out there, who perhaps did not pick the right photographer for your wedding day and you would like to have some cherished images of you and the love of your life- this is your perfect chance to recreate how beautiful you really are. We have a stylist on hand to primp you up and have lots of fun, because essentially, that is what we are all about.

  42. This is great photography for multiple reasons. It's not just the colors are lovely and the scenes are creative and beautiful (which they are) but because it is so obvious that you love each other, have fun, and just genuinely enjoying being in together. And no matter what they say about pictures being able tell a thousand words, it would still be difficult to capture all that and yet.. it does!
