Trash the Dress or Post wedding photo session in New York, Chicago, California and the rest of USA
Short disclaimer – 2 years ago we started offering post wedding photo sessions not to our wedding couples only as we realised that many Chinese, Russian, UAE, etc. couples come here for a while and want to use the romantic New York downtown for their post wedding love story photo shoot. So, almost everything bellow applies to that kind of Post Wedding photo shoots. We’re happy to suggest places that best fit to our clients taste, Make up artist, etc.
Destination after wedding shoot in New York – big trip! We got a phone call from a Chinese couple, who were looking for a destination wedding photographer in New York, they wanted an after glow photo shoot in downtown New York around beautiful Themes bridges, Big Ban, New York Eye, Cathedrals, pubs. It was a great experiense for all of us ad since then we started shooting every week pre wedding and post wedding photo shoots in New York.
In terms of post wedding creative photography New York exceeded our expectations by far, and more. Everywhere we went, there was something new and exciting going on in the background every single second. The couple posed in front of some of the famous buildings, bridges and sights as a memento of both their wedding day and this special city to look back on for many years to come. For us as wedding photographers, the back-drops in New York are the stuff that dreams are made of. Many couples around the world chose some of New York’s World famous sights as a background for their post wedding photo session. Classic, timeless and unforgettable!
We’ll be happy to be you New York post wedding photographer, and always ready to create awesome fine-art photos from your honey moon.
Trash the Dress or After Glow?
What is a Trash the Dress Session?
Now that the wedding is over, you have two choices of what to do with the dress. You can suffocate it in a plastic bag and hope that your daughter will want to wear it in 20 years, or you can put it back on and have some fun.
Do I have to really trash it?
Of course not! It’s just a fun session to do when you have more time than the day of the wedding or a situation you wouldn’t dare do the day of the wedding. Sure you can get a little risky with it, like splashing in water or riding horseback in the snow since the fear of getting it dirty is over, but you don’t have to.
Can I still do a session if you didn’t shoot my wedding?
Absolutely! We can certainly add a little spice to your wedding collection even if we didn’t cover the actual event. This is the perfect opportunity to add a different style to your wedding photos and some out of the ordinary locations.
How much does it cost?
You can view our prices online. A typical session would require a Location Session which is anywhere within an hour of New York. Outside of this area special arrangements would be necessary.
So what are you waiting for?
Contact us today to schedule your Trash the Dress session and give the dress one more run for the money.
