Meghan&James ~ Day After Session

I met Meghan and James after they had already been married. Their wedding photographs were simple, so they came to me looking for some creative images of the two of them in their wedding attire that would better show off their colorful personality. After a planning session, we decided to do an urban session in downtown Durham and on Meghan's special request, it was to end with trashing the dress! I have SO many photographs from this session that I love. I was able to narrow it down to a few to show here.

Meghan got into her dress one last time in my house.

We started at a rooftop garden in downtown Durham. I love how the flowers in the garden matched the flowers in her bouquet and hair, perfect!

Then it was up a few flights of stairs to get a grand view of lovely Durham.

Back down to earth, we wandered around playing with the urban landscape.

I checked the radar before our session started and saw that a storm was on its way. This was the perfect opportunity to start the trash the dress session... a beautiful summer rain.

To really finish off this dress, we went to get Meghan immersed in water... I love the color!

I think Meghan and James are about as fun as a couple can get!

Please contact me if you would like to do a Day After Session or a Trash the Dress session! I'd love to do many more of these. Thanks Simon for helping your very pregnant wife carry around all of her photo gear, and thanks Meghan and James for being open to anything!
