  • The guests are lifting their glasses as the couple shares a kiss. They stand out as the focal point of both the photo and the event. Sense of movement provides an ethereal quality to this beautiful image. Reminiscent of Camelot and the Kennedy era, the essence of this timeless photo is beautifully captured in a slightly soft image that further enhances the dream-like aspect of the moment.
