p.1 #6 · Where have you sold a wedding gown you used for a shoot?
This was for a shoot with a model.
Cuz, you know, prospective clients will now look at my portfolio and say "Wow! I'll look like a size 2 if I hire Matt to cover my wedding!" We won't get into proper diet and exercise being a more realistic approach...

One more thing...
I say this only because you linked to the shoot rather than just saying "I used it for a shoot" and leaving it at that... have you considered the possibility that perhaps YOU could get further use out of the dress? If I were to buy a dress to do a model shoot I'll be honest with you and say that I'd at the very least hook up the shoot in one of the most memorable, most epic locations I could get into... and you better believe that the end result would have to kick the ass of anything I've ever shot in an Embassy Suites.
and any kind of "there aren't epic locations around these parts" isn't going to fly. I don't care where you are, there HAS GOT to be something more interesting than a holiday-inn hotel room.

Hire an aspiring model (or get a cute friend) who fits the dress, create a bridal workshop shoot out, find a cool location, charge some nominal fee for each attendee and make your money back !

Customarily your business plan would include modeling fee's and props, goods, etc.. This should be deductible as a business expense.. Also that plan should include how, what to do with unneeded items, such as dresses... Thinking before spending is a good thing.. Give it away and claim the loss..
