Rebecca's Trash The Dress!

This weekend, Josh and I got to photograph a remarkable person. Every once in a while you meet someone that after they leave you, you go "Wow, what a smart, funny, nice, charismatic insert other adjective here....kind of person." I met Rebecca for the first time on Sunday and was absolutely blown away by her. Josh actually booked her wedding last year for June of 08, but I never had the chance to meet her in person. All I can say is that her fiance Tom, is one incredibly lucky man, to be marrying such a beautiful person.

Josh and I photographed Rebecca's Trash the Dress session with a dress from Ebay. I know sometime's it's hard to trash your actual wedding dress, so an Ebay dress is a great option. They're cheap and you don't get withering looks from your mother when you tell them you're going to trash your dress.

All three of us literally trudged for about 3/4s of a mile in Red Rock to this gorgeous creek and grass fields. Let me tell you, Rebecca hiked with the wedding dress on! After that she actually got into the freezing creek water. It must of been about oh....35 degrees. If you notice a slight bluish tinge to her skin, it's because she was that cold!

Rebecca, thank you so much for letting us spend the day with you, and for having that much moxie! You are so right! Those chicks on America's Next Top Model have nothing on you!


First off check out how beautiful Rebecca is:

Rebecca was a great model:

I just love the romance of this photograph:



I know Rebecca mentioned that Tom loves to read. Well, can you guess which Shakespeare heroine Rebecca looks like in this photograph:



No it's not Sleeping Beauty (although uncanny resemblance huh?).

I promised a slideshow to Rebecca. I hope you like it! Thank you again Rebecca, and I can't wait until the wedding!
