The first time I met Ellen, I was covered in blue paint & she was dressed as a Newsie selling ‘papes. Oh, college. I don’t think we knew what to make of each other, & I’m so glad we continued dressing up as weird things for fun parties that we decided to throw. Some highlights include a black, white, & gold masquerade ball where Ellen & I serenaded everyone with the violin & piano duet Masquerade from the Phantom of the Opera, a James Bond laser tag party, a murder mystery party, & a Cinco de Mayo Kentucky Derby watch party complete with sombreros & mint julep where we attempted to crush ice with a large knife. Again, college.

Ellen, thank you for asking me to photograph your wedding, & more importantly, thank you for picking me to be your friend. I’ll have more mushy things to say when I post your wedding photos.
