Week 11c&d – Mr and Mrs Jones (Part 1) – Ilford HP5+ (+2 Stops)

I met Nick while working for a telecommunications company pretty soon after moving to Atlanta. We almost immediately bonded over music, film, art, and photography. In fact a few weeks after our first meeting we ended up staying way too late at a bar discussing Romeo and Juliet. 

Nick quickly became my right hand man of sorts, always willing to jump in and assist me with any upcoming photo assignments. He acted as my assistant for Beautiful Darkness and there are tucked away on this website a few photos of him just being himself. 

In February of 2013 he moved back to his home state of NY and left us all behind. It was a great honor to be invited to his wedding and I jumped at the chance at taking a trip. Originally the plan was for me to snap candid photos of everyone while I was there. But plans changed (not after I bought a bunch of film though) and I shot anyway. 

I wish both Nick and Chrissy the best of lives together, and hope that I can make it back to see them sooner than later.
