Wow, has it really been this long since I’ve posted a Time After Time session? Bad blogger! I know, I know, I teased and I said they would be up soon – but that was quite a few moons ago. Anyway, moving on. I present Cara and Nate’s Trash The Dress – or Time After Time session, as I call it. This photoshoot took place in Martin, Kentucky in the heat of summer of 2008, the morning after their wedding.
Nate was a crazy theater major. This is exactly how I remember him from college.
My fave
There was nowhere to hide from the sun – so we embraced it.
I guess I shouldn’t have worn a skirt. It was pretty funny.
Love it! This shot was taken by my lovely assistant Samantha, and edited by me.
I just fell in love with the mountains and all the greenery.
Later, all Cara needed to do was wash the dress on a gentle cycle in the washer, and voila, clean as a whistle.
Oh, and did I tell you about the time when I was shooting in the lake? I was in rapid fire mode, focusing on the two lovebirds wading around in the water, when I slipped on treacherous rocks and dunked myself AND MY CAMERA in the water! Luckily, my instincts took over, and I managed to yank on the camera strap with one hand while hitting the rocks with my other, so only the grip of my precious 5D got dunked. I banged up my wrist pretty bad, but who cares about that? We took the grip off, dismantled all the batteries, put the CF card on the car hood, and in 10 minutes the sun had dried everything off. Eventually, I got bandaged up, we put the camera back together, and it was working! The second shutter on the grip obviously got water in it, because it kept firing and firingandfiringandfiring until I turned it off – but the main shutter and everything else worked just fine. No images were lost, either. Yay for happy endings!
