TTD is another common term for photographers to use (i.e.: e-session, SOOC, etc.) that sometimes we will just say and people will cock their heads to the side a little. TTD stands for “trash the dress”… said dress being a wedding gown. don’t get too uppity… you don’t literally trash it. it is just a means to get some different and edgy photos of the bride in her wedding gown after the ceremony. i love it when a bride says she is interested in doing a TTD shoot.
my wife’s wedding gown is still hanging in plastic in our closet… it has not gone to the cleaners yet. so, just a few weeks before our wedding anniversary, we decided to go off to one of my favorite places to shoot. my magical tree spot :)


i need to applaud my wife… she was quite the trooper out there. this place is clearly not the most fun place to be, in a wedding gown, during the recent So Cal heatwave. she totally pulled it off (said in as much of an un-biased way as possible).




it was quite sunny out, so once we escaped the shade of the trees it was almost impossible to tolerate the sun for long. i plan on going back to this part of the site for sure when the sun is not so high.

one week from today is actually our anniversary, so these have a little more meaning for me. maybe next time we will bring our little girl into the photos as well. i cannot thank my wife enough for not only the daily putting up with a buffoon like me (that is a combo word of “buff babboon”, right?), but for getting herself all glammed out and being a champ through this photo shoot. i love you!! :)
