Before I am a photographer, I am a daughter, a sister, an auntie, a friend. Maybe that's why I cry during every father daughter dance. I laugh at every toast. I well up when an Officiant pronounces a couple husband and wife. I buzz with joy chasing children around the playground. I feel awe when a newborn's tiny hand clutches my pinky finger. I draw from the emotions I have experienced through my own life's most precious moments to know when and how to capture those of others, and I usually can't help feeling overwhelmed myself! The emotional rush I feel when I'm behind the camera is what makes me love what I do. The joy I bring others through photography is what makes me do what I love.
Jessica, that's beautiful! Really something different here. Love the writing at the bottom too. They must really love it, what a great idea to rework a photo for their anniversary. Reminds me a little of John SInger Sargent the way the black recedes into the backround, tho it's the goom. That's an artpiece and a keepsake, I hope you made it big! (sorry if this repeats, can't tell if it went through)
What a great idea to rework an image for their anniversary! My urge is always to make things like this big, but in this case I think this print would look beautiful either as a small canvas print or metallic textured print, in a gallery mount with lots of mat space around it, to emphasize its vintage look and preciousness.

Great job! You have some lucky couples.
LOVE what you did with this image. Do you mind sharing your secret.
