Vintage weddings

Instead of introducing myself on my 1st blog post, because c'mon who cares, we're here for the wedding porn....I will just jump right into my obsession.

Nothing inspires me like my grandparent's wedding photos from 1954. Black and white film images, raw emotion, an unstructured moment captured.

As such, I swoon over these images of JFK and Jackie's wedding from Newport RI in 1953. These photos are exquisite.

Yum! Love these little confections.

And of course you need someone to capture it all....may I recommend the lovely Lisa Frechette, photographer extraordinaire?
