Weddings are often filled with little traditions and personal touches that make the day feel unique for the couple. In fact, for some, the memories don’t end when the ceremony does, and a creative photoshoot can become another way to hold on to the excitement of those first few days as newlyweds.
This was the idea behind a photoshoot for Maria Pantazopoulos, who had married her husband, Billy, earlier that year. She wanted to take part in the popular “trash the dress” trend and chose the Ouareau River near Dorwin Falls, Quebec, Canada as the setting. Sadly, what was meant to be a playful way to create unusual wedding memories took a heartbreaking turn.
