Good Golly, Miss Mollie...let's TRASH THAT DRESS!!!

I have been waiting to do this Trash The Dress session since Mollie and I first started talking about it last spring. Mollie is the owner of Mollie's (hair salon) in Cobourg, and we love to dream of cool concepts when we are together. All of the planets aligned and we were finally able to pull it off this past weekend. She was only too willing to trash her old wedding dress in the name of science...we wanted to see how filthy it was going to get! We crawled around in caves, in mossy holes, out of crevices in the ground, and I can truly say that a wedding dress cleans up beautifully in the washing machine! I'm happy to know that it's ready for another trashing, as soon as we get a chance to do it again! Thanks girl....this was SOOO much fun! Rob was with us videotaping the event, so I'll be sure to post his latest video of our session when it's done!
Here's a few from our shoot....

Great pics, Gerri! I just eloped in Bali and am having another ceremony in Chico, CA which Denise Neufield (who also trashes dresses) is going to shoot. I don't have the guts to trash my own, but I will have worn it 3 times when all is said and done. I've got to assume it'll be good and trashed on its own by that point!

Keep up the great work! Your photos just keep getting better and better.
