I love my husband, Paris, hot black coffee, baths, popcorn and junior mints, sunday afternoons when I’m not working, long walks on a cloudy day, rain, fog, snow, Christmas time, the spa, sweatpants, HBO, airports, airport bars, bloody Mary’s, old chairs, Totinos frozen party pizzas, the color blue, Joni Mitchell, Counting Crows, Radiohead, the subway, the perfect fitting jeans, diptique candles, my old 1970 maverick, my Dad’s farm, the smell of my Grandmas house, junk cereal, afternoon naps, laying in the grass, planting tulips, Target, a good book, the time to read a good book, the beach, the smell of baby coppertone sunscreen, down pillows, , arrowhead hunting with my Dad, hotdogs and beer, sleeping in, a long swim, using other people’s toiletries, expensive wine glasses, expensive wine, wine in the box, getting lost when I have all the time in the world, road trips with my friend Marie and Tracy, anything by Baz Luhrmann, slippers, school supplies (i still buy them every year even though i’m not in school), the E nglish country side in the winter, dangly earrings... |

Nelly and Ian Married 8/26 at Cherokee Ranch and Castle
September 10, 2007
•Weddings
Unfortunately, I didn’t really get the chance to know Ian and Nelly before August 26th. We met the day of the wedding in fact, but I adored them instantly. They are two of the most sincere people I’ve yet to work with. There was a very sweet solemnity to the entire day that was just very peaceful and sacred and I’m thankful to have had the opportunity to spend this day with them.
Ian and Nelly asked me to photograph their wedding in a very raw, journalistic way–and they also asked me to shoot a lot of black and white film—they certainly came to the right photographer! I had been looking forward to photographing this wedding all summer… I felt like I was completely in my element. Thank you, Ian and Nelly for trusting me with this beautiful day. Congratulations!
I wanted to give Ian and Nelly a chance to see each other for the first time and kind of “revel” in the moment before we started with all the wedding hoopla. Right when Ian walked in to see Nelly for the first time, his cell phone rang. It was a pretty funny moment, but at the same time somewhat serendipitous. Both of them were a little camera shy, not to mention that most of the bridal party was watching this “first moment” from the other room. I think the cell phone really took the edgy off, and made for a sweet shot.
I loved this moment between Ian and Nelly’s mothers…

This is totally not a “wedding shot”, but it is a “Julie Harris” shot and I loved it. I had to put it in…
Ian had his friend from New York city come and perform at the reception… It was a really nice touch. It was like a free concert for me—I even bought one of her CDs!
