Hiya Ladies,
As most of you know I started up my own photography business and I am looking for ladies who might want to join myself and Happy Mammy doing a "trash the dress" shoot for my portfolio and web site..
For those of you who do not know what this is…well it involves getting in to your wedding dress again and putting on a bit of slap and doing your hair nicely, then joining me out and about getting lovely photos of you in your wedding dress!!!
The dress won’t actually get "trashed" but you must be willing for it to get a little dirty as the photos we will take will go against all the rules of wedding photography!!!!
You must be willing to get a few mad stares as well as we will shoot any where and every where!!
Happy Mammy has already agreed to a day and is even prepared to get wet !!! That will be the last shot !!!
( This is not the dress she wants to sell , but a second one she never wore…)For any ladies who join us for the day I will provide them with a CD copy of all the best photos fully edited and also an 8 x 10 print of their favourite photo from the day..
I am in the process of updating my web site at the moment to include more of my wedding photography and hopefully during the summer we can get some cool "trash " shots for the new web site too..
Pm me for more details or reply to this thread. I have n’t set a date yet just gonna see what interest we have.
July 1, 2010 at 8:32 pm #96320YvonneMemberI have heard of this alright!!!!
Oh to wear my dress again!!!! Might be interested in doing this if the dress fits me hahaha!!!!!
Will come back to you on that… and speak to some others who might be interested!July 1, 2010 at 11:37 pm #96329happymumblemumParticipantYvonne you are the last person I thought would reply 😆 😆 😆 😆
Should be a fun day..we will go for a spot of lunch some where too!!!!
July 2, 2010 at 9:07 am #96332yummymummyMemberCan I come and watch 😆 😆 (seeing as I dont have a dress haha)
July 2, 2010 at 9:27 am #96334scotsmumMembersounds like great fun… id definately jump at the chance to wear my dress again!! when and where is it being done??

July 2, 2010 at 3:07 pm #96343happymumblemumParticipantWell I haven’t arranged an exact day yet but will see who and how many are interested and try to get a day that suits the majority..( there is the difficult bit….) 😆
We would have a lot of fun..and hopefully get some cool shots!!
I will pm everyone who shows an interest and take it from there.
July 2, 2010 at 8:18 pm #96353YvonneMemberLol Hmm!!!! Took me a while to reply to be honest! But a chance to wear my dress again??? You know how I am about weddings!!
July 2, 2010 at 9:57 pm #96361super minderMembermy wedding dress was a big size 26 now im a 16 . mite be worth getting a new one in a charity shop. always did want to be a skinny bride lol
July 5, 2010 at 7:34 am #96389happymumblemumParticipantThat would be a great idea Super Minder!!!
I think a lot of these shoots include the groom too dressed casually but this time just for practice we just gonna have the girls!!
Hopefully all you brides walking around in strange places will generate great interest for my business too!!!
Someone suggested me wearing mine too as I take the photos lol but I would be too uncomfortable trying to lay down etc etc to get shots..it would have been mad though!!
July 6, 2010 at 11:09 am #96442MaryEMemberAh that sounds like great craic.
I totally do it but seeing as im eight months pregnant my dress wouldnt fit me – boo hoo.
If you need any pregnant models – let me know lol
Enjoy.
July 6, 2010 at 9:33 pm #96468KittyhawkMemberI’d love to do this but my dress wasn’t/isn’t white and doesn’t really look like a wedding dress and I no longer have my headpiece as it was a loaner. Would you mind?
July 7, 2010 at 8:42 am #96474happymumblemumParticipantHi Kitty Hawk thanks for the interest however for this particular shoot I need it to look very obviously bridal if you know what I mean..
I will see how this shoot turns out then I will offer this service as part of my packages, then if you still fancied the idea I could sort you out with a very vey good deal for a shoot in whichever dress you want to wear!
July 21, 2010 at 12:54 pm #97033happymumblemumParticipantHi ladies
Don’t worry I haven’t forgotton about this its just I am snowed under with photo editing at the moment having just finished my second wedding!
My web site is currently being renovated to include some of my wedding photos and I shortly will be finalising details for my wedding packages. I am aiming to provide the best value package around for weddings !!
July 23, 2010 at 10:56 pm #97149Taylor5MemberOh i would so love to do this!!! But i was married in a registry office in a not so wedding dress type of dress 😆 😆 😆
Anyone got a size 10 or 12 dress that i could borrow? I wonder if any of the bridal shops would get involved with sample dresses? Would be great for them to get a bit of advertisment… im sure expose or Ireland am would love something like this
Count me in if i get a dress will look in the charity shop
July 24, 2010 at 8:33 am #97156happymumblemumParticipantLadies I have had phenomonal response to this.. ..I never dreamt so many of you would be willing to get your frock out again!!!
Originally I had planned to take you all in my car but it looks like we may need more co ordination!!!
I will be arranging the day once I have my last wedding boxed off..
Stay tuned. 😉
