Get a kick out of this!

Here's a few hundred soccer shots from my friend Alec's team, the Highland Football Club.
I just knew he played soccer, I didn't know his team was rockstars! They cleaned house!
Awesome game.

Trash the Dress!



So you dropped some major coin on your wedding dress and you're only going to wear it once!?
If it's going to sit in a closet till the end of time you may as well get some sweet shots out of it first!

That's what Christy did. She and I got together and meandered through downtown Asheville, spent a little time in the River Arts District and even got a few shots at Beaver Lake. She was psyching herself up to go headlong into the water for the grand finale of our shoot but we got the boot from some rent a cop who casually adjusted his vest to show me his badge before informing us this was a private lake. Nerd. So we're saving the wet look for spring.

Even if you've been married for years, these are super fun shoots with no agenda other than having fun and getting some more mileage out of your wedding dress!

This was my first "trash the dress" shoot but, I'm pretty stoked with the results. Christy is a fellow photographer and she was awesome - allowing me plenty of leeway to experiment. Check out her site right here.

It's taken me forever to get these edited and online. I'm pushing through this time; it's 3:30 in the morning, I've got to be up in four and half hours for church and then it's another trash the dress session. Oh, it's my birthday too.

I've wanted to use this song for quite a while in some slideshow but, it never seems to fit. I like it. Gryphyn likes to dance to it. It grows on you. So here ya go. You've got a volume control if you think it's lame :)
