Some brides lock their wedding dress away in the attic, with the dream of one day passing it on to their daughters. Other brides just want to put on the dress and go for a swim. That’s what “Trash the Dress” is all about. This was an early-morning shoot on San Francisco’s Baker Beach.
Patsy and Tony said “I do” on a beautiful fall afternoon in Los Gatos. After the joyful ceremony, we took advantage of the afternoon sunlight to take some portraits in the park nearby. The Opera House is an intimate space, with an antique staircase and quirky carpeting. It also has space for a huge dance floor, where the elated couple and their guests partied well past curfew!
A couple weeks ago I packed my camera gear, plenty of water, and ventured out to Black Rock City, Nevada to take part in the Burning Man festival. The desert is an amazing place to shoot: the light is always changing, the dust storms are brutal, unpredictable and fascinating, and people’s self-expression and creativity are virtually unlimited.
