01. TTD - Water
Images submitted into the “Water” category are from settings in or near water. Representing the many ways photographers may use water to their advantage, these photos might depict the
bride or couple in formal wedding attire fully or partially immersed in a swimming pool, lake, ocean or even a puddle.
02. TTD - Urban
“Urban” entries capture the bride or couple in formal wedding attire within city or town life. Creative couple portraiture might be set amid well-trafficked or heavily populated areas,
urban ruins, housing or architecture, graffiti-covered structures, social landscapes, busy streets or sidewalks. Portraits can also be taken amongst transportation including cars,
trucks, trains or subways.
03. TTD - Rural
“Rural” photographs depict the bride or couple within a country, rustic, natural or rural setting while dressed in their formal wedding attire. This artistic portraiture might portray
the subjects lying in a field or walking on a dirt road, among livestock or within an isolated pasture.
04. TTD - Details
For the “Details” category, we are looking for images that primarily focus on close-range details of the bride, groom, couple or distinct elements within the setting. These details can
be found or set-up shots. Details might include sand on skin, wedding bands, hands, feet, or a soiled or wet wedding gown.

The WPJA is proud to launch the first annual Trash The Dress photography contest specifically designed to recognize the exceptional talent of our esteemed members.
Trash The Dress (TTD) competition entries are created after the ceremony with primary direction provided by the photographer. Entries are judged on creativity, technical proficiency, composition and lighting.
Gritty, romantic and uniquely sexy, TTD photo shoots challenge the photographer’s creativity, imagination and technical aptitude. Enjoyed by thousands of brides and couples worldwide, these on-location photo sessions commemorate the wedding and cherished gown within a glamorous, frivolous and often lively post-nuptial portfolio. TTD sessions meld formal wedding attire within unconventional settings. For example, sessions are frequently held on sandy beaches, amidst crashing ocean waves, at rustic farms, on playgrounds or in urban settings.
After the nuptials but before it’s boxed, the wedding gown is taken to a completely new level during a Trash The Dress session. We invite members to exhibit their creativity through our newest competition. Submit your entries by Friday, September 19th, 2008 in our exciting, first annual TTD competition!
