nostalgia, already?
following are two pictures from the wedding that i have recently rediscovered. i don't know if you can really call it "re"discovering, after a mere 4 months and some change have passed since the wedding. and we haven't even made our real albums yet. but for some reason, i hadn't given these pictures the attention they deserved when we first scrambled through the stack of 460+ proofs.

the first is our "first kiss." the best part about this picture is that nobody is paying attention to us (besides our dilligent photographer). this is mostly due to the nature of an episcopal marriage ceremony - the first kiss takes place at "the peace." everyone else was sharing the peace (those are our fathers, about to shake hands). that rocks, to me.

and it's almost like an end of a movie. the camera is panning out and the world is moving on around and despite the two lovers, finally kissing.

the second is a picture of erik and i dancing. i think i first dismissed this picture after erik complained that his hair looked like it was thinning. also, i'm pretty sure the only thing completely in focus is a freckle on my shoulder. but now i can't get over the look of peaceful happiness on his face - his subtle smile.

at that moment, that man was so in love with me. and at that moment, my hair looked pretty fabulous, no?
