Trash the Dress : Darbi and Neil

Darbi is a fellow photographer out of Columbia, MO. She's shooting my wedding, and I second shot this wedding with her a few weeks ago. We're practically best friends now...I'm sure if we would have known each other even another month she would have had no qualms kicking her sister out of the maid of honor position and making me her maid of honor instead. We're THAT tight.

The incredible Stacy Reeves and I shot the wedding, and the day after the four of us (me, Stacy, Darbi, and Neil) went down to Hummel Park for a day-after session. You might hear these also called "Trash the Dress" sessions. However, the dress isn't usually ruined - a dry clean later it's as good as new, ready to be donated or sold or stored in the back of your closet. Darbi and I both attended day camp at Hummel park as kids, so it brought back a lot of memories.

It was really, really gorgeous out, other than the bazillion mosquitos and the risk of West Nile.
