Bridal Shoot

I thought it was a wedding shoot and then I saw the bride and groom going into the sea. I quickly grabbed my camera. (I was on the balcony of my friend's apartment, 4 stories up in Cala Mayor, Majorca). I was on full zoom, hence the poor definition, but it was 720 mm.

I love that second picci. Superb content!

You could still get some fun prints from those, regardless of quality of the file.

It looks as though they were having fun on either some sort of fashion shoot or a series for a magazine or similar.

Yes, just counted, I can't believe it but I took 111 images. Unfortunately, the groom had his back to me for a most of them, but they are still not bad shots. They walked a little nearer to me for the last shot. It was quite exciting for me as I had the balcony to lean on.

Re: Bridal Shoot

Great pictures - a little soft but I don't think this devalues the shots. That really is a trashed wedding dress (Where did the term 'trash the dress' come from?)

Did you manage to find out if it was an actual wedding?

Apparently it is now a fashion for bride & groom to dosomething different for their wedding picks. I have heard of one girl haveing pictures taken smeared in engine oil posed over an old banger in her wedding dress.

Loved to have been there with camera od course.

Its been around for a while now and the way I see it is that brides were fed up with paying so much for the dress and only wearing it the once. So the idea was to have a shoot after the wedding and another chance to wear it in which it would not matter if it did not stay clean.

If you look it up on you tube you can see many different ways in which it has been trashed
