Not Your Mother’s Wedding Photographer

Not Your Mother’s Wedding Photographer

I love my mother. I even love her wedding photographs. They’re well composed, properly exposed, and beautifully printed. All 24 of them—a brief record that the day happened and everyone looked smashing. And that’s it. Everything left is a handful of prints...
