TARJA + MICHAEL | August 2014

Martinpiha Häät | Lohjansaari Häät | Finnish Jewish Barn Wedding.

.

I photographed this wedding back in 2014. While I like to hold on to my old work to be able to see how I grow over the years, I encourage your to check out my more recent work, here.

“I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine.. ”
אֲנִי לְדוֹדִי וְדוֹדִי לִי, הָרֹעֶה בַּשּׁוֹשַׁנִּים

“You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling,
    as lovely as Jerusalem,
    as majestic as troops with banners.
Turn your eyes from me;
    they overwhelm me.
Sixty queens there may be,
 (..) but my dove, my perfect one, is unique”

An island on an lake, in Finland.
An outdoor Jewish Wedding Ceremony.
A chuppah.
Readings from the Song of Solomon in Hebrew and in Finnish.
Some unexpected rain.
A crushed glass.
A party in a barn.
Lawn games.
Dancing in the night.
Laughter and joy.

“I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine..”
אֲנִי לְדוֹדִי וְדוֹדִי לִי, הָרֹעֶה בַּשּׁוֹשַׁנִּים
