]]> Take me to the river…Dip me in the water…

Lisa did more than “dip in the water” during our Trash the Dress session last Friday.  She reclined in it, and managed not to freeze!

Her photos are absolutely stunning, and I cannot wait to hear what her husband has to say about his present!  It was really a blast photographing for Lisa.  Her mom came as well (and did a great job keeping Lisa’s cute lab, Bailey, in line) and we all had our fair share of laughs.  (In case you are just stumbling across this and haven’t read previous posts – Lisa chose to do a Trash the Dress session a year after her wedding day, as a one-year anniversary/birthday gift for her husband, Tim.)

Take a look for yourself at the following selected photos.  I had such a difficult time picking out my favorites – there were so many – but these are the ones I came up with.  Enjoy!

The light was breathtaking.  It’s like Lisa had her own spotlight, courtesy of Mother Nature.

Tim is a hunter, so Lisa thought it might be kinda fun to see what a gun prop would add to the photos – cool idea!  Not very often you see a bride with a gun!

I’m loving the hairlight in this photo.

Doing some twirling.  :)
Again, beautiful, beautiful light!
Bailey’s antics were making Lisa smile.
Again with the perfect spotlight.  Lisa’s just beyond gorgeous in this light.
Bailey got to run around, too!
Wading through the water, making it look effortless and warm, though it was chilly!  (Lisa selected this photo to have made into a canvas print for her hubbie.  Gorgeous!)
Gotta love reflections!
We live in such a lovely place!  (I was standing in the water for this photo, too!)
Pretty profile.
Smoldering!
And the shoot is done!  Time to warm up and wring out the dress!

Laughter!  Yay!  (I’m loving the Tevas here, too.)
