I was really against the TTD at first as I didn't want to ruin my dress... but after seeing so many fun, gorgeous pictures (and my FI being in love with the idea) I caved. I'm not even buying a cheaper dress to use. The way I look at it, I'm not selling the dress and it'll mean so much more to me when I look at it years from now knowing all of the fun I had in it.
We've already booked the session with our photographer for the day after the wedding... I can't wait to run into the water with my dress on lol...

Yes... its a full on obsession.  We have transportation to pick you up, we take you on a tour to see some locations that are unbelievable, just natural eye candy.   We have wetsuits and I usually go underwater with a tank and do some diving on these shoots.  Our team also is assisting us (1 assistant on lighting in the water) and 1 assistant outside the water... to get results like this, it honestly is quite a lot of hard work and ultimately if it all comes together a technical master piece.


Just understand the amount of equipment used at any one of these sessions rivals that of buying a house. :)

 

good luck and we hope you choose to have fun with your day after session...

 

here is one more photo for inspiration:

Check out this blog post actually for some KRAZY killer underwater moments along with a beach session to follow: http://delsolphotography.com/blog/post-1013/Jenna-Gary-Cenote-Trash-the-Dress-Photos-by-Matt-and-Sol

 

hope you enjoy :)

PS...water is a little cold 68 degrees year round!  Normally HOT outside though.

I LOVE looking at these pictures! It never gets old. I know that my mom is SO not thrilled with the idea of "trashing" my dress, but for such incredible pictures I think its worth it! Who says your dress would be totally "trashed" anyways! Well lets hope for MY sake that my dress would stay nice so my mom doesn't give me a good beating! HaHaHa!!!

 

I'm so excited to work with you Matt! I'm just counting down the days until you work your magic! :)
