Get Your Drink on...

Get Your Drink on... She looks upset and lost while her new husband is in a drunken sleep. If you check out the video session it's at this point where she has the gun in her hand and puts it to his head!

Hi Amy, The couple and photographer def have a message and show it well. I love the fall photos on your blog, very beautiful colors. Thanks for checking out my post. :) Hey Tavia, How are you doing? They are very interesting. I dont think I could do something like this in my wedding dress, but maybe for Halloween! :) Thanks for checking out the post.

Aww Mims, Your photo shoot sounds so fun and romantic. I would love to do something like that, my fiance proposed to me on the beach! Thanks for sharing your trash the dress with us and commenting. :) Have a wonderful holiday.

Hi Diana! I love the idea with the abandoned house :) I think it's a great idea for some interesting photos :)

I trashed my dress, but not in the same way. My husband and I went with our photographer to Charleston, SC and had 2 photo shoots. One at Middleton Place Plantation and one at Sullivan's Island on the beach. It was so much fun. Very different from our wedding day when I had so much to think about and there was so much going on. These pictures were awesome and we both had such a good time. It was great. After we had taken tons of photos we ran into the ocean holding hands for the final ones. These photos are my absolute favorite!!!

Diana, Regarding that link It's amazing. Those colors and idea on that wedding dress are amazing. I totally loved the idea! :) I want more more more..... :D

Hey Alisha, It's good to hear from you again and that you loved this post. It is a really great artistic photo shoot, but def one I couldnt see myself doing. The bride, groom, and photographer def got people talking and did their thing!

Hopefully these dresses in the photo shoot did not cost arm and a leg....ouch!!!

Crazy photoshoot! but the photos are gorgeous nonetheless. you can really see the message in each...
