New Series


These images are from my new series which I call "Vanishing Brides". It is a project that I had so much fun working on. My idea was to preserve images of wedding dresses worn from 1940-1970. I feel like life is so different from when these dresses were worn. I had teenage girls wear their grandmother's wedding gowns. They all had such a fun and memorable time modeling for me. I think it was a memorable time for all. See my web site for the complete series. Tootieart.com.

Tootie! I just checked out your website and I can't believe you got 24 different dresses! That's amazing. It's crazy how much more modest those dresses are compared to today's fashions.

Amazing! I loved these. The cropping is incredibly cool. Do you a lot of fashion-based/inspired photography?
