This may have been around a few times already, but it’s such an interesting idea and has resulted in the most amazing photos, I just had to write about it. The website is called Trash the Dress and it’s a movement of photographers and ex-brides to do the most unusual photo shoots, almost the anti-wedding portrait, without any concern for preserving their gown. The resulting photographs are sometimes humorous, sometimes dark, but almost always incredibly evocative and memorable. I haven’t seen any information about licensing these photos, no doubt they belong to the brides… but what a cool fit that would be for my wedding design company! It’s attitude, it’s beauty, it’s fun… although I do cringe at the thought of those wasted gowns. Maybe this is a good opportunity for dry cleaners to boost their business! A few of my favorites below:

Finally – tasteful wedding photography!
Love the “Car Wash” shot. I would like to do that with a Hummer and a bride, covered in mud, with her being sprayed off.
Very tasteful. Haven’t done a trash the dress yet.
i would love to have may car cleaned by those automated and computer wahsers …
Love these type of shoots! If you don’t want your satin wedding dress any longer, even after the photo shoot. I would love to finish it off…Any size satin dress accepted here. Reply to this comment and I will get back to you on covering shipping costs.
