I was fortunate to spend a beautiful midsummer afternoon photographing the love/art/pie fest of Molly & Brian. That Saturday morning in Ithaca the clouds were grey with the drizzle which marked the end of another great summer heat wave.
I’d like to share an excerpt from a piece Molly wrote about her wedding for the Equals Record:
I went to my mark, and though my instinct is always to rush, I thought, “Molly, this is the one time it’s ok to make people wait.” Which is probably really for the best, given I rarely wear heels and my dress was nearly floor length.
I walked past the decorations, which I’d helped to coordinate but which were made into reality by friends. These friends who amaze me all the time with their creativity and art had made the space so beautiful, so much better than I’d envisioned it, and I’m pretty sure I started crying right then.
I made it (slowly) down the few steps to the area where everyone was sitting, and the first things I saw were a little kid and Buddy the dog sticking their heads into the aisle and I thought, “Yup. This is my wedding.”
Brian was standing all the way at the end of the dock, so he walked up as I walked down, and we met where the water meets the land.
