trash the dress photograph of bride and groom at nelson ghost town in nevada sitting on chairs in abandoned funky building

I have been wanting to do a shoot at Nelson Ghost town for so long.  When Erin contacted me for a trash the dress shoot, I thought it would be perfect to do there and luckily she agreed.  I was so excited talking with her about all their props and ideas.  When I saw them get out of their car I was even more excited because they are absolutely gorgeous!

We had such a fun time there.  They were the perfect models.  I am pretty sure this is my favorite shoot yet.

Enjoy the pics…I had the hardest time narrowing them down so once again I posted a bazillion.

    Love the school bus yellow with the blue tones and the overloaded general store shot. Great lighting, composition, colors – not sure you two can take a bad shot. Glad we’re related to you.
    Kudos to the photographer!

    Had never heard of this “trash the dress” concept, but after seeing these i’ve become obsessed! Looking @ blog after blog, shot upon shot. Have yet to see any that compare to these though. Kudos to you all! These shots are gorgeous, original, and flawless. LOVE THEM.
