So why not use it while you can? That's exactly what Lisa wanted to do with her dress, so she donned it one more time and we headed out to the Mission district and the Palace of Fine Arts to get some extraordinary (and extraordinarily sexy) photos to remember the dress by! It's not called a "Trash the Dress" session for nothing...she sat in alleys, leaned on walls, and finally even waded into the pond in front of the palace. This isn't for the faint of heart!
The slideshow is so much fun!

OMG....what an incredible session you had. Talk about fun! I love #8 in the slideshow. The perspective is just so creative and original. You have some amazing talent!
Great shoot! I'm a bit of a traditional and sentimental guy. My oldest sister actually wore our mom's dress - it was a huge ordeal to get it restored though. My wife has hers stored for our daughter. It's all sealed and we visit it now and again to check it out through the viewing window.
Most people won't do this and will let it go to waste. A trash the dress shoot at least gives it one last hurrah.
I totally can't wait for the weather to get warm in the spring so we can do this -- great shots too! ++
JK! I love #31 ~YOU ARE THE ARTIST!I love the height & lighting of the ornate door...and how it overwhelms the secluded couple ;-) Great job!
I still need to find a brave one... these are great.+
I love your photos!
Aww, Rodolfo, if you're ever in the Bay Area, I've still got the dress! ;-) I'd go out again, although it's getting a bit cold for swimming!
I looove the water pictures! :)
Lisa, have you got any plans to do anything more drastic with your dress - like paintballing or wearing it while painting your house, or working on the car etc......
hehe!!
Actually, I'm going to cut it up and make a patchwork tapestry with it, along with other fabric I used for wedding decorations. We'll hang it on the wall when I'm done ;)
I love the water pictures too, but in the first one, she looks a little bit like

G -- I can't believe I'm doing this.
Cracks me up.
Great work, Jillian!

lol, Jules the funny thing is that Lisa was pretty calm. Her hubby and I were much more nervous! It was cold water, and not really a pond made for swimming, so we had no idea what would be in there. :) Luckily it was just muddy with some big rocks to sit on, but she was definitely braver than I am!
Jillian, I love this!! I just wanted to let you know that I've linked to you as a great example of showing clients what you'd like to try in the future!
