Before the wedding dinner commenced, I took a stroll through the hall in search of photos for my cousin's wedding album. The stillness and quiet within the hall was a stark contrast to the relative chaos outside. A few busy waiters made some last minute preparations. Candles were lit and the atmospheric music from a live jazz band was in the air.
Even on this hectic occasion I suddenly felt completely at ease.
I found this flower arrangement on the stage and decided to photograph this, using a shallow aperture to turn tables and chairs in the background into a dreamy mix of tones.
