We went to another funeral this weekend. It has been the third this month. Why even talk about it? It’s not a happy topic. It really has made me stop and rethink how I feel about family and friends. My youth, has lead me to believe in error that my friends and family will always be around. It’s even given me an excuse to be mad at them longer than I should. I have, in a way taken them for granted. I am sure, that I am not the only one. I have been talking with friends, two of which have experienced a lot more death than me. It was interesting, one of them said and recounted a few things that I have only recently learned or come to realize. It seems life teaches us these lessons at different times. There is no school book they pull out and tell you to turn to that page. The moments you are experiencing today are priceless and they will never come again. This is one of the reasons we love to shoot weddings. It’s one of those occasions full of love and laughter, it brings family’s and friends together for a few days without the worries of life.
I will posting another full wedding tomorrow from Omni Interlocken Hotel, this is one of my favorite shots from the wedding. Jeanna’s bridemaids during the ceremony laughing. It makes me smile every time I see it.
Unknown said Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.
