Weekly Photo Challenge: Love

20130127-010002.jpg

I love this photo partially just because of how it looks; from their faces to the fact that the background is blurred to the coloring. But also what I love is everything that’s captured in this moment that is more than just visual.

I’m posting this photo as part of the weekly photo challenge, which I’m not sure if I will continue, but this week the topic is Love, which I *love* (see my other blog). 🙂 It’s supposed to be my own interpretation of love, so the reason I chose this photo is because it is at a wedding, but it is the bride and her father. Weddings are all about the love of the bride and groom for each other, but there’s another story behind it. Dads are absolutely crazy about their daughters, and the act of giving their daughter to another man is a HUGE act of love. They always want to protect their daughters, so giving her up is on the one hand a sacrifice, and on the other hand an act of trust. Trust in the daughter that she has chosen a good man, and trust in the groom that he will protect the daughter.
