The most beautiful reason to trash the dress.

 

 

Janine Slack’s beautiful wedding dress was meant to mark the beginning of her new life. A life shared with her fiance, John.

But fifty-two days before their wedding, John died unexpectedly and Janine was left heartbroken. She was also left with the memory of a completely planned wedding that was never going to happen and a custom made wedding dress, she says was just “for him”.

Until she met wedding photographer, Matt Adcock.

Matt helped Janine find peace as he helped turn her wedding plans in to a beautiful series of photos as a dedication to her relationship with John and the perfect wedding ceremony they planned together that never happened.

Take a look:

 

Speaking to Del Sol photography, Matt said.

“After I heard Janine’s story, I really wanted to do what I could to create a magical adventure for her.  She told me that she felt a strong connection with the element of water, for its cleansing and purifying qualities and the sense of freedom she felt while swimming.  I knew that the natural aquatic wonders of the Riviera Maya would offer great comfort and would be the perfect vehicle for her healing process.” 

And so they created the most beautiful images for Janine. For her mind. For her heart.

Janine said she wanted to find ‘closure’ through the photo shoot, and after watching this beautiful video, we hope she did:
