Toledo City Paper Article -- Trash the Dress!

Photobucket

About a week ago we were interviewed by the Toledo City Paper regarding the Trash the Dress phenomena, well as of today the article was printed featuring several local studios opinions about these sessions, here's our tidbit:

"Trash the Dress photography uses the elegance and beauty of a bride and her gown against a harsh environment or an artistic background where the subject is strikingly out of place. “It’s that contrast between new and clean, and old and dirty,” says photographer Sam Adams of Everlasting Images in Whitehouse, Ohio. He has done Trash the Dress photo shoots in abandoned railcars, snowy landscapes and windblown fields. “A lot of people are turned off by the term ‘Trash the Dress,’” says Adams, who’s had brides sneak their dresses away for the shoots to avoid anticipated family opposition. “But a lot of times, because we usually end up in the water, the dresses come out cleaner than they were the day of the wedding — and everyone loves the photos afterward.”"

This is exciting! I had just received word that I was in the City Paper, but I haven't been able to pick a copy up yet! Is this the same picture that is in the paper?

Congrats on the press. :-)
