Trash the Dress or Rock the Frock


There is a rise in the phenomena that is "Trash the Dress" or "Rock the Frock" (I prefer the latter description) - but what exactly is it?

Allegedly started in 2001 "Trash the Dress" is an opportunity to get some really great edgy photographs of you in your wedding dress in settings that are in complete contrast to everything that a wedding dress symbolises.

When you think of a wedding dress you think of delicacy, and finery but place this in a setting that exudes harshness, rough terrain, mud and more and it is like putting salt on your cup cake!

But, it can be extremely artistic and produce some stunning photos though it is not for the feint hearted! If your wedding dress as a possession is important and you plan on keeping it for future generations, you may not want to go down this route!

Choose your photographer carefully - one of our favourites is Jose of J Cardoso Fotography. Jose's work is urban, contemporary and edgy as you can see from the photograph shown here. But don't take my word for it - go on over to J Cardoso Fotography and see for yourself.

Happy Planning
