The story behind the image

This wedding was pure fun because the bride and the groom were wonderful, relaxed folks. This mood comes across in the pictures very well.

For example, during the dress-up session with the bride, she held up her dress because her bridesmaid had to fasten something to the underskirt of the dress and almost disappeared in the masses of cloth. The bridesmaid wore a traditional Bavarian dress which made this a timeless beauty that could easily have been captured centuries ago.
