DECEMBER 5, 2012 - CHAD+JOLENE | more of their trash the dress shoot

It started out as any normal portrait session would; a dry bride, a dry wedding dress, and some beautiful locations. However, once we got to the river, that's when we really started to have some fun. I personally have never made any one (not that I made them) fully submerge themselves in water while wearing a wedding gown and let me tell you, we had some surprises with how the dress 'acted'. You never truly realize how much fabric is involved in a wedding gown unless you A. Make one, or B. Try to get one to stay under water without any bubbles. Let's just say there were some strange noises and lots of laughs going on between shots.

Although Jolene was not planning on getting totally soaked, she's got such a sense of adventure that it just sort of ended up that way and I couldn't be happier with the results. Thanks Chad and Jolene for being such good sports!
