Trash the dress - part II
Yesterday we attended another Trash the Dress
session, and this time we managed to get some images which are in line with our
vision for what our paying clients should expect and would receive.
Yesterday we attended another Trash the Dress
session, and this time we managed to get some images which are in line with our
vision for what our paying clients should expect and would receive. As I have
mentioned in my previous post on this topic we have attended these workshops to
gain important experience in the safety and practical aspects of a shoot in
water, woodland and urban environments as well as to get some reference images
which we can show our clients as they consider trashing their own dresses for
real.DISCLAIMER: The image(s)
shown below were taken at a workshop using a professional model. There were
several other photographers present, and similar poses using the same model may
appear on the internet. I have only posted those where I had some artistic
input, and of course the combination of my framing, lens selection and
post-processing are unique.The
workshop took place in Surrey and not by the sea this time. We had managed to
ensure that the model would be wearing a contemporary wedding gown, in most of
the locations by additionally sponsoring the workshop. The initial shoot was an
urban TTD and featured a derelict building and then a short distance away to an
already destroyed coca-cola machine at which I setup a concept image which I had
pitched to the session organiser, of the bride with a sledgehammer and coke
bottles.The next location was some
woodland nearby which had some amazing natural features, and light and then we
finally made our way to a weir and bridge in a local village much to the
amusement of the residents, and cricketers playing on the green opposite. This
final location had a prom dress being trashed and I have not included it in this
posting.A very big shout out to
Skye
Edwards , our model for the day who was extremely professional and
capable and is highly recommended to any other professional photographers
