Trash the Dress photos!

[ironsidephoto]

Hey all,
I take weddings pictures for some local wedding photographers where i live, and we did an artsy 'trash the dress' shoot with a former bride the other day.
I just uploaded about 30 of the pictures to my website, and i'm pretty pleased with them. I'd appreciate it if people would look and tell me what they think!

Which of the 6 pages is the trash the dress series on? These are taking forever to load for me.

they're at the end of the wedding gallery. the last couple of pages or so. it loads the thumbnails first, then the images, though if you click on a thumb that hasn't been loaded yet, it skips to that one.

Glad you posted the pics. The images on your website loaded fine, but there were a lot to go through. Could not find the trash the dress ones. At any rate I am not seeing the trash the dress part. Seems like she just got comfortable in it.

well i guess the 'main event' was when she got in the water.
that pretty much trashes it.

Yeah... I was thinking that after I made my comment. Maybe the fibers get separated? My ex wife's dress seemed stout and also had a sheen that seemed water repellent. I do not get how the fabric is so sensitive.

Nice series. My only question is her shoulder area in picture #2.

what do you mean about the shoulder?

what do you mean about the shoulder?

Where the shoulder meets the water looks very strange, almost fake.

I think you have a nice series here. I get to do my first trash the dress shoot this weekend and im looking forward to it.

3 is my favorite. Looks like you had a great model.

hmm. . .you mean the reflection in the water?
maybe i've looked at these so many times that i've completely missed what you're talking about (to wildmaven)

There seems to be a horizontal line through the shoulder. Is this a shadow, or the water line? The reflection's edge seems too crisp.

I really like the first 2 especially the first one with the shimmering water.
