Being a wedding photographer here in Hawaii I deal with a lot of different variables, especially when it comes to getting in the water for a trash the dress session. Â Being on an island we are often at the mercy of the wind, sun, waves, and all different elements. Â Dana and Jake’s “Trash the Dress session” almost didn’t happen. Â Jake sliced his foot open before their wedding and almost didn’t make it to the ceremony after spending most of the morning in the ER. Â The doctor told Jake to stay out of the water. Â A friend let us borrow the big blue boot to keep Jake’s foot dry, as seen below. Â Busted up foot or not Dana and Jake did a great job hiking over the coral on the North Shore, and getting in the water. The waves were a little big that day but we were able to find a safe location to get into the water. My two favorite pictures of this shoot are the 4th photo were Dana is running, and the last one. Â I think she looks so peaceful as she is gliding through the water.
