When in Italy....

take the opportunity to shoot brides

wherever possible...

This couple was being photographed 

(very adequately, I must say)

and I was on vacation.

But that dress caught my eye!

Look at the weight of the fabric! 

Look at the detail!

They were in the right spot,

and so was I!

I couldn't resist.

So happy,

so pleased with the day,

so ready for the future...

I think this may be one of the reasons that 

I adore weddings.

So much promise, hope and joy! 

Of course there are exceptions,

but for the most part I have 

had the privilege to shoot 

many weddings just as 

happy and special as the one above.

Rarely 

in

such

a 

wonderful

locale

though....
