I’ve been busy. Busy getting married, finishing my house. I had guests in the house until yesterday. Not much time for anything. That doesn’t even include dodging the construction dust long enough to write a post.
I don’t do this often. Post in colour I mean. This is my darkroom light. My wife said she chose it because it reminded her of Eggleston. Only the opposite. Slightly confused, I asked where she’d heard of Eggleston. She told me after we had met she’d spent several weekends reading about the masters. She’s as cool they come.
This is her. I took this on our wedding day. She was certainly a site for sore eyes. She’s wearing a traditional Korean dress called a hanbok. I wore one as well, ha.
I want to make a longer post about the wedding when I have time. Hopefully I will have some now that things from the wedding are winding down. We had lots of guests. Junku Nishimura was here, Matt Martin, Aikbeng Chia. We had a blast. Lots of drinking. Lots and lots of drinking.
Anyway, that’s it for the update. On a side note, anyone have any suggestions for an enlarger? 😉
Iksan, South Korea.
June 2018.
Now since when is a wedding a valid reason for not blogging! Unheard of! 😉
Anyways, all the Best to the both of you!
She’s beautiful!
Congratulations to you and the eye-pleasing bride.
With the guests/photographers mentioned you probably had the best captured wedding in history.
Very Egglestonian indeed, that ceiling. And very formally beautiful, that full-length portrait (and you wife). May your happiness together be long.
[Nice, the idea that she spent hours studying photography to be closer to you. A labor of love.]
Congratulations! Lovely pics, as usual. About enlargers, I’m using a Durst 670 BW, it’s great. And you can probably find one dead cheap…
The story about her reading the masters is as romantic as it gets. So much love! And the wedding picture is awesome too
