♥ there are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.

i have to admit, i am sorta waiting for the one year mark to hit before i really start getting going on our official wedding plans... so for now, i have been daydreaming a bit about wedding photography and have decided that i will settle for nothing less than something exactly like the sheer loveliness and utter beauty of max wanger's wedding images.

i am absolutely, one hundred and ten percent smitten with his work. (like, if i could print out an album of random strangers that he has snapped and put it under my pillow, and have pastel colored dreams, i would do it in a heartbeat.)

forget your average wedding pictures of everyone lined up in a row saying "cheese." if i am going to pay money to have my photograph taken on my wedding day, i want each shot to be worthy of a gallery, each take to literally take your breath away. sorta like these...

and just when you think you couldn't possibly get enough of max wanger, you find out that he

recently tied the knot, and fall in love all over again.
