I received a call from Michele a couple weeks back and she knew of me from an event I shot at Bottle & Bottega in the summer. She and her fiancé were planning a civil ceremony in a town close to where I live. I was happy accommodate them and be one of the 5 select people at this event.

I stopped by the courthouse the day before and was initially a little concerned. The parking lot and the courthouse weren’t going to make for very interesting images. I started to wander around the neighborhood a bit and pretty quickly discovered this really nice park right next door. Yay! It had plenty for me to work with and I mapped out a path of things we could walk through in a short period of time.

After our quick shoot in the park, we walked over to the courthouse. There were two other couples waiting to be married but Michele & John were first. The judge was pretty funny. His name was Mr. Fullylove - and he joked about how appropriate his name was for his purpose in the days events.

Ten minutes later, Michele and John were married! Congratulations to you both!
