Happy Couple

Happy Couple

From Detroit, it was go Columbus! The wedding was yet another highlight of the trip. For long, I have been looking forward to meet this absolutely fine family from my husband's side. And being a total sucker for beautiful love stories, I would not have missed this wedding at any cost.

Here's the happy couple for you. Their delicious smiles touched every heart, I am sure and as I keep reiterating, I love inter-racial marriages for they speak of love amidst the prejudices that mangle the world :)

And here's Daddy's not-so-little girl with the first man in her life:)

With the difficulties that have to be overcome and the prejudices that so sadly abound (even as this world becomes smaller) this photo is a joy to see. Wishing this handsome couple a wonderful marriage. How wonderful to see the photo of unification between the bride and father.

Moi,
Thanks for visiting my blog, The CCR song-group was not Dutch, but from the USA. (sorry!)

I love really the photograps you made from this couple, both: the coloured one and the black and white too.

I like the point of view.

Great composition, Moi.
The top photo - the way his black suit becomes part of the border, and the bottom shot has a great angle to it.
Up here, interracial relationships are very common, usually a white male with a Hispanic or Asian girlfriend - we don't have too many East Indians here yet.
I had a Bolivian girlfriend for a long time & no problems.

Moi, what a beautiful couple! And a happy Papa. I think the B+W photo really shines, could be her luminous smile :-)

You seemed to have a gorgeous vacation. Loved all the pics.
I like the shy smile on the bride's face, something hard to come by these days, the shyness that is

A beautiful couple and beautiful shots. Again, you've set the camera at an odd angle to very good effect.

Beautiful sari! And definitely seems like a happy couple. Very nice photo of the bride and her father as well.

Interracial marriages are very common in Canada, and I think in general they are probably freer from some of the prejudice that might exist in the States. The nature of Canadian multiculturalism is a bit different from that in the States. I would say it's more reflective of a celebration of diversity. I could be wrong, but that's my observation anyway.

Sorry about the deleted post above! I had to correct a spelling error.

JAM said...

Both are wonderful shots. The bride is beautiful and I especially like the one of the bride and her father.

Cris said...
