Rock Your Frock & Trash the Dress




A photographer friend of mine from Rockhampton who I worked with on a wedding last year (http://www.geoffreysinclair.com.au/) emailed me a few weeks ago to let me know their was to be a trash your dress workshop going on over there. Unfortunately I couldn't get there. I had seen this concept a few years ago and loved it. When Geoff emailed me, I decided that is was time to do something about it.

Wednesday morning, it was overcast and lovely so Sam and I decided its now or never with wedding season about to kick into overdrive.

Unfortunately, there would be no time for a model to do it, so I had to run home and get my Deb dress (Im saving my wedding dress for a proper shoot, when my husband could be in it)

And off we went. Im sure anyone that saw us that day must have been wondering what on earth we were doing, we even questioned if we lost our own minds!

I am going to be doing two types: Rock your frock (tame version) or the trash the dress (for those that are completely at ease with the possibility of ruining the dress). Lets face it, you buy the dress you wear it and it gets put away forever.

So, here is a few shots from the test shoot. I have a few volunteers already, and hopefully once we can get an entire portfolio of this happening, people might really start to want to do a shoot for themselves!

Happy looking and please dont laugh at my terrible modeling skills - I definately like BEHIND the camera

All the pictures were taken by Sam McGrath/Kellie Blinco Photography.
