Like every sunday morning, I wake up, pour a big glass of coffee with lots of sugar (hehe) and then sit down and read my Boston Sunday Globe and sometimes the weekend edition of the wallstreet journal.


This is my time to catch up with the world, relax and just be me. This Sunday's art section had a story about Richard Avedon's photos of JFK and Jackie and their family. I looked at these photos and was just wowed by them. I loved them. The classic pose and great structure of the shots just made me think. So then I found myself looking up JFK's wedding in 1953 in Newport, and I found some great shots by Lisa Larsen on Time/life's website. I think their wedding has a timeless look and is a great source of inspiration for modern weddings that want that newport classic vintage look, what also amazes me is the photojournalistic approach at their wedding, when so many other weddings at the time were still just line them up and shoot em, as we say, grip and grins.
Well with the rain today, and the ash in europe, I hope you find these photos inspirational.
