Roses, a fountain,
and a dog
in the hall
Castello di Santa Tecla · Perugia, Umbria
September, and a castle that behaves like a house: roses against the stone, a fountain in the courtyard, a labrador asleep on the flags, and a wedding that ended with half the guests in the pool.

The last hour,
and what it
is worth
Every wedding has one hour that decides how the pictures feel, and in September it is the one before the sun goes — the light comes along the ground, the stone throws it back, and everybody has stopped performing.
That is where this whole page lives. The ceremony was at the top of the afternoon and the dinner was indoors, but the frames that hold the day are from the sixty minutes between them.
