Announcing FREE Trash the Dress Sessions!
I think I have lost my mind. I love doing these types of shoots so much that starting now, I will do Trash the Dress sessions for free until further notice! This includes wedding dresses and prom dresses, or any other formal wear for that matter. Wanna trash a tux? Go ahead!
“Trash my dress? Are you crazy?” Nope, not at all!
Brides, why pay lots of money to have it cleaned and preserved? It’s going to sit on a closet shelf or in an attic for the rest of it’s life. Your daughter is NOT going to wear your dress in 20-30 years. Would you have worn your mothers?
Prom dresses aren’t much different. The styles change from year to year. Nobody wants to wear a dress twice, and everybody wants their own look, not one somebody else has worn.
So why not trash it? Come on, get that thing out of the closet, put in on, fix yourself up one more time in it…..and make some more exciting memories in it! There is no limit to the creative ways you can make this happen, and it will cost you nothing! Shoots are only limited by your creativity, and they do not have to involve completely destroying the dress. It all revolves around wearing formal attire in unusual circumstances. The level you take it is entirely up to you. Some possible shoot ideas:
-Get it wet! Swimming pools, ponds, cricks, rivers, fire hydrants, water guns. How bout Nashville Shores?
-Get it dirty! Mud riding, auto repair (think muscle cars), out in the woods. Mud wrestling?
-Get it colorful! Paintball, tye-dye, paint the house. Got kids? Have them finger paint it.
-Wear it somewhere unusual. Wear it at work, at a theme park, horseback riding, out at the bar. Just have fun!
-Get totally trashed! Shred it, cut it in pieces, burn it (not with you in it of course). Completely do it in!
Of course, it’s all up to you!
So what do you get with this free shoot? You get one hour of shoot time, 15 web sized images with the studio watermark (like the one below), and tons of unforgettable memories with your dress in one final hoorah! Plus, you will be semi-famous! I will blog each shoot one here, Facebook and Myspace!
This free shoot doesn’t include any prints, but they are available for purchase at the standard print rate. Due to the shoots being free, I must limit the range of the location shoots to about 30 miles from Hohenwald, TN. An exception to this may be possible for shoots in the Nashville or Atlanta areas, but you will have to be willing to wait until I am in the area on other business to do the shoot.
Why am I doing this, you ask? I’m a very non-traditional photographer. I love new trends, and I love to have a great time. The Trash the Dress trend has been building for the last few year, but has yet to take hold in the Nashville area. I hope to help it catch on, with your help. So, are you ready to get that dress out and get trashed?? Contact me at admin@jpphotog.com to let me know you are interested, and we will start plotting against your dress! I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
