reflection


I was shooting a wedding recently and the justice of the peace earnestly suggested that I take a shot of the bride and groom looking in the mirror. I think she really wanted to help me expand my creativity! I ignored her of course but I couldn't help but think of her when I took this shot. There is a subtle play on dimension as you see the bride and groom's faces in the mirror just behind them. Maybe it's a classic shot and not a cliché after all.

absolutely gorgeous, Liz! the mirror is a classic trope in poetry--I know a whole book of criticism that's been written on the subject. perhaps it's a matter of medium as you say but it seems to me the quality of the shooter...wow!
