Hi There, My name is Michelle Davies and I am a wedding photographer and first time blogger. I’ve done a couple myspace blogs in my day but never anything serious or important so this feels a bit new and strange! I hope to join the craze of people who love to write endlessly about the exciting moments in life. I do come across penty of amazing moments with my job! So I will start with one of them…. Janelle and Kaleo!
I have been to a whole lot of weddings and sometimes there is one that just sticks out for some reason or another. Janelle and Kaleo’s was one of those. They were such a happy couple, so much fun! But it was this moment in the ceremony that had everyone tearing up–including me! What’s happening here is a footwashing. If you don’t know the signifigance of this here’s the basics… At the Last Supper Jesus washed the feet of all of his disciples. In the days of dusty roads and open-toed sandals, feet often became dirty, and it was the job of the lowest servants to wash the guests’ feet. This act is meant to show devotion, humbleness and love. To see this as part of a wedding ceremony was incredibly beautiful. Kaleo was humbling himself before Janelle in true love and devotion. It was truly the most moving thing that I have ever experienced in a wedding ceremony so far.
Ah love, what a great job I have!
