From Jessica: I love this photo because it captures all of us sharing a moment of pure bliss. I can feel the bright light, the warmth of the sun, and JF's hand in mine. I can hear the laughter. I am reminded of how special it was to have our friends and family all around us - greeting us with big smiles and showering us with rice (a German tradition) just moments into our marriage. It just looks like so much fun - and it is a moment I treasure. It was probably the first time that day when I was finally relaxed!

From JF: The windswept grasslands in this shot are what drew us to this region. I'm holding Jessica's arm to support her step on the uneven ground below, and her classic flowing dress is magically reflecting the sun - to me like a galaxy of sparkling stars fallen from the sky to become my bride. For Jessica and me, much of our wedding planing was focused on ways to celebrate our family and friends, but in this moment, in this picture, it's just her and me, taking all this happiness into our hearts.
