I had the opportunity to shoot the an anniversary party for the great-grandparents of few cousins that I knew from my former job. Their Mom contacted me and said that her grandparents will be celebrating their 60 wedding anniversary. I felt so honored to be able to be a part of such a special day. Their party was held at the Victorian Candle in Hollywood, MD. It was such a beautiful sunny day for it and the main reception room had the most perfect lighting that anybody could ask for. Now as some of you might know, I turned into quit a social butterfly a few years ago...I get it from my dad and my sister. It was so interesting to hear the stories that were coming from their friends as they were telling me about how they met and got to know this beautiful couple. Howard and Shirley were such sweethearts from the moment I said "hi" and I could quickly see why after all these years of being married they were still surrounded by the love of their friends and family that they had known for many many generations. Their daughter Joanne that came up with the idea to celebrate this day, took them to the very same chapel that they said their I-do's 60 years ago on the date and she made a note that on both days from 1958 to 2018 the chapel had snow on the ground, I thought that was a nice little touch. As I was looking around the room, I admired how loving and caring everyone was and especially this couple because I cannot fathom being married for so long as I am only in my early 20's. It made me realize that everyone has their ups and downs but the people who matter the most to you will always be around. Enjoy the Reese Anniversary Gallery Bit.
