I took this at the salon around quarter past eight in the morning, and even more than 1000 shots later it’s still one of my favourites from the entire day. I took photos from beginning to end (18 and a half hours), a record for me, but it was a major learning experience in wedding photography.

Hats off to Marina and her family — it was a big, wonderful Italian wedding and I was grateful to be there, not just to capture some of the moments, but to witness this happiest of occasions.
