we had the great pleasure of photographing the union of laura and dave from blissed photography earlier this month at golden gardens in seattle. today we are two ships passing. as we pack our bags with flip flops and snug swimsuits, these two are returning home with sand in their ears. we are hoping to get a "blissed guide" of maui once they get settled. welcome home laura and dave! your future is a poem.
laura is also a poet and dave is a jazz musician. laura wrote a love poem and read it to dave at their reception. below is the first part of her poem, you can read it in it's entirety on her wedding blog post.
invitation
this is an invitation to the future
this hand in hand holding hearts celebration
of the divinity of this moment.
the future is noisy –
early morning jeff buckley lyrics
pile up and collect in corners
making a church of our home.
late night sunday jam sessions
splinter the bones of our house
creasing jazz into every crevice
with improvisational frenzy.
the future is a poem –
-laura totten
