I recently went to photograph a former wedding couple's newborn in their home and upon walking in I immediately saw this largely printed image hanging on their wall.
Lacey reminded me of all the details...
The La Marca bottle was custom engraved with their wedding date.
The accent wall it lives on is painted La Marca blue.
The champagne glasses belonged to her late Nana, who had passed before the wedding, so they honored her by toasting with them.
Then she said,
"I didn't want to look at a giant photo of my face every day. I wanted something that reminded us how our wedding felt..."
As photographers, we spend a lot of time talking about first kisses, golden hour, epic exits, etc... But sometimes the photo that hangs on the wall for years isn't a portrait at all. It's a picture of Nana's glassware that makes them remember what that day felt like.
Congrats to Cole and Lacey on little Ace.
