I met this man and woman on the top of a hill at a park in the windiest city in the world. They were making wedding portraits. Throughout the entire project I was seeking a couple, an image of a wedding. To represent the love in the world. Between two different people. Love leads the way to Peace on Earth. The closest I got to a real wedding ceremony was in India when we crashed a wedding. I had made the portrait of the day earlier that day so will remain true to the moment. Although at the Indian wedding I met the bride and groom and gifted them a Polaroid of their special night in between the two photographers they officially hired. So in a way you can say I photographed two newly weds in this project. One as a gift in the perfect setting at the wrong time, and the other as a blessing to be in the right place at the right time with the right people in their aura of love that shone like a lighthouse in their fair city.
