The Photograph That Changed the Course of My Life
My parents on their wedding day. This is the photo that made me want to shoot weddings. How, in one sheet of film (4×5 camera), did this photographer capture the unity of these two in the first moment of their new marriage? Their feet are perfectly in step. Their arms are linked. They burst from shadow into bright sun. Such hope and joy. This marriage lasted 63 years. Inspiring on many levels. I adore this shot. Photo by Leo Hessler, 1951. ~shared by @johndolanphotog
