Trash The Dress- Christina Part 1

Meet Christina and Dave! They were married on June 5th in Syracuse. Christina came to me and said that she wanted to Trash the Dress and of course I was up to the challenge. We had so much FUN! I am glad that I was able to do this for her. We started out in Johnson City down by the railroad tracks and then we were off to Gary's U-Pull It. Gary's is a junk yard, in case anyone did not know that. When we were talking about what she wanted to do she said water. So, I took her to Salt Springs Park in PA and water she got. We put her in the freezing waterfalls and stream of water there. We then headed to my sisters house where Christina jumped into the pool. Dave had their underwater camera and got some really cool shots at the pool too.

I am still working on getting them all edited. Here are some that are done now, I just could not wait to share some of them. I promise there is more on the way! There are just so many that I wanted to share, that I will be spiltting this into two post. Here are the ones that we took at the tracks and at Gary's U-Pull It.

This tire was sitting at the tracks. We could not have asked for a better "prop" to be there.

and the rubber rope too. She wanted graffiti and I was able to deliver!

Love this one. Tracks equals danger and it just shows in her face.

She was a great sport and climbed (with help) anywhere I asked! The brick wall ledge she actually picked and it was a thin ledge!

This is where we ended at the tracks and headed off to Gary's!

Here she is on the tire mountain at Gary's.

Relaxing in an old truck. David found the F150 plate on the ground and gave it to her to use.

I LOVE, LOVE this one. It looked great in color and then I added the B&W effect to it and fell in love with it even more. This one is one of her mom's favorites too.

Yes, she really is sitting on the hood of the car. Yes, she really has grease on her arms. When she asked for it I think that the guy thought she was a little crazy. But it looks great. Nothing like your car breaking down on your wedding day and you have to be in the hood in your gown to fix it. lol

The car that we used in these two photos was so cool on the outside but so smelly and gross on the inside. We set a sheet inside and her sit half in side the door. She was such a great subject and sat there tolerating the smell to get these great photos!

One last photo by the Gary's U-Pull (http://www.garysupullit.com/) It tractor trailer.

I want to thank Christina for being a good sport with everywhere we stuck her. I also want to thank the Roche Family for allowing us to use the pool. What a sight to see when you look out your window- a bride jumping into your pool. Thank you to the guys at Gary's U-Pull It too, for allowing us to come in and shoot there and for our personal "tour guide", Adam. Everyone was great to us.

I hope you all enjoy looking at these as much as we did taking them. Let me know if you or someone you know would be interested in having some fun with your wedding dress!
