The Quiet Moment
We've been working on photographs today and I just had to share my thought on this photograph of Lee and Melody.A wedding day is very busy - ok, extremely busy. It can sometimes even be hectic. However, even among all the people, all of the celebration, true love still comes through. You see, to me, true love isn't something that screams out loud (though, at times it can). Though it is always easy and clear to see, it is often times quiet and can be missed if one isn't paying attention.And then, for brief moments in the wedding day, the silent love comes through in a way ... almost unexpected. It is the brief pause - the deep sigh - the thought that is at the very core of the bride and groom. "we're getting married today" "I'm marrying my love today" .... "we're married" ... "we're actually married." In that moment, in that pause, in that sigh of joy, comes through the true feeling of the day - and the real reason a wedding is such a special event. It is the great love that the couple shares which makes the day so unforgettable. For us to be witness to such love and emotion is simply wonderful and inspiring.Here is one of those moments with Lee and Melody. This shot happened during their first dance - really, the dance was impromptu and unplanned. There was music playing in the background, they had taken a step away from their guests for a moment, and just started dancing together. This is one of their small, quiet moments of true love.
