Day after photos? | Trash the Dress Monroe Files Photography DuBois, PA

This is such a great idea!

I could never put my wedding dress on again to take it out to trash it. Maybe it's too soon, or maybe I just can't bring myself to get it dirty (especially since it's already been to the cleaners!) I would hope that my little girl will one day wear it down the isle and feel the same magic her mother did, so long ago.

Day After Photos are much more relaxed and low key. I love that he's wearing jeans, a button up shirt and a loose tie. :)

Besides, it's just a great excuse to put your dress back on! :D

Bridesmaids trash the dress! | Trash the Dress Photographer Monroe Files Photography DuBois, PA

After my bridal shower, we took all my 'maids and went around Rockton to trash the dress! It was a great time and we are hoping to do "Trash the dress 2!" summer of '09! Here are a few pictures I can take claim to from the day!

Miss Sarah Nelson, starting off on our parade arond Rockton in Grampa Tom's truck. It was the most babes that truck has ever had in the back!

She felt like Miss America, as we drove around Rockton beeping and screaming :)

Emily, laughing as we continue are trash the dress parade!

What do you wear to trash a dress???

Crocs that match your dress, of course!!

All the lovely ladies getting ready to get dirty at Jamie's house! (You can get the scoop on the house here: http://straubsweethome.blogspot.com/ )

Jamie taking some of our props back to Mike's shed.

Ayren with windblown hair as we head to Brown Springs from Home Camp Road.

She was excited about how green everything is!

Miss Sarah, getting down and wet in Brown Springs! She wore the dress that just would not get dirty!

Jamie, and if you look closely you can see a tiny bit of her rain boots she was wearing :)

Ayren walking down the spring to the swimming hole. Another one of my favorites!Miss Jamie, riding in the back of the truck. One of my favorties!

The day was just not long enough to do the bridal shower, trash dresses and bachelorette party! It was a wonderful day, full of lots of smiles, laughs and hugs.

Anyone up for dress trashing in the snow?? :D Kidding! You all know how much I don't like winter and hate being cold! If someone else wants to venture...by all means! I will be behind the camera with 5 layers of clothes a winter coat, boots, gloves, hat and snow pants. With some hot chocolate and peanut butter toast awaiting our arrival back at the house :P

Mary Pat & friends trash the dress! | Trash the Dress Photographer Monroe Files Photography DuBois, PA

I appologize for the extreme lack of updates! I have been ridiculously busy with wedding stuff! The big day has since past (Oct. 11,2008). Unfortunately, I will be away from the internet after Oct. 19th for our honeymoon cruise to the Caribbean! CAN'T WAIT!! Much deserved and needed vacation =)

On with the photo show, these are photos from Mary Pat's trash the dress session. I want to offer this service to my brides who I share their special day with...but unfortunately, I don't have any photos to share. Now I do!

These photos were taken in St. Mary's, PA, back Old Burndale Road. I had no idea that this cute little water shed and stream was off the main road to St. Mary's! What little treasures one can find =)

Kelly working it!

The water was a little chilly...

Shelby's friend...I don't remember her name (Sorry!) The girls wanted in on the fun and found some fun Halloweenie costumes to wear!

Miss Kelly.

She's a photographer...I think it shows!

I love how her dress almost glows!

Family.

Such a pretty dress!

I love all the buttons down her back...

That would be mud on her face. Her and the girls got into a mud slinging fight!

Ow ow!!

Sexy leg!

Mother and Daughter.

This tatoo is a tribute to Mary Pat's brothers who are no longer with us. She endured great pain and suffering for this tatoo....she was allergic to the ink and had hives for two days. The tatoo is not complete, but she's afraid to go in because she had such a strong alergic reaction the first time.

Pretty pretty!

Alot of bling going on!

Another one of my favorites =)

CUUUUTE!! Mommy and Damien. Both with mud on their faces. =)Beautiful baby blues!



Mary Pat and her hubby Jason. Too cute!! Having some fun in the water! One of my favorites! Kelly is such a cutie!

Thank you all for a wonderful time and a trip into the woods of St. Mary's! I hope you enjoyed yourselves as much as I did =)
