Wedding Photo w/Cast

October 13, 2010 at 1:08 pm by Claudia

Okay…by popular request:

This is the only photo where I deliberately allowed the cast to be visible. Since it was not very attractive, we covered it with a white nylon sock. Somewhat dainty foot on the left, huge prehistoric foot on the right.

And here is one of my favorite photos of us – right after we took our vows.

We each had a little gray hair, but you couldn’t really see it. Now – you can.

    You not only look beautiful, but so very joyous! Thank you for sharing your happiness with us. I love how the wind is slightly blowing your hair on the porch. Bella.

    Hi Claudia,
    I just love your big smile in the second photo. Happiness was allover you. I just love it.

    You look so lovely in your gown and I couldn’t see the cast.

    Happy 12!!!! I remember the dress story so well, trying it on with a baby in a stroller, the sales lady looking me over, while I had tears in my eyes and a baby right next to me. I remember sending it to you and you trying it on while I was onthe phone with you. So lovelywasn’t it?

    Gorgeous bride :) As for the cast … you can almost fake it out as a fold of your skirt or maybe its part of the train pooled behind you. That white nylon sock really did the trick!

    Hi Claudia, I was hoping you would post a picture of the bride!! You look so beautiful and happy! We got married on the 12th of July but are celebrating our 30th. My husband had a patch on his eye until right before the wedding because a seed had flown into it while we were looking for an apartment. I thought I would have to marry a pirate, but luckily the patch came off shortly before the wedding. Your cast helps make your wedding even more unique! And the love and happiness is obvious on both of your faces. Congratulations! You seem as if you are still in love like newlyweds! Linda

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
