Trashing 'the dress'


At least seven recently married women donned their wedding gowns once again this Sunday for a "trash the dress" group portrait on Half Moon Beach at Stage Fort Park.

The brides were seeking portraits with the fun and excitement of reliving a part of their wedding day without them having to worry about getting their dresses dirty.

The seven brides were photographed by Kevin Jacobus Photography of Nashua, N.H., in a variety of poses concluding with the women jumping into the ocean in their wedding gowns.

Half Moon Beach was chosen for its sandy beach and rocky outcroppings that provided a beautiful backdrop for the brides' photographs.
