On a chilly Tuesday morning I met up with Lan and Kevin to photograph their Boston City Hall wedding ceremony.

Wedding ceremonies at Boston City Hall are short and sweet but you'd be amazed how emotional it can get saying those time-honored vows:

Lan & Kevin - thank you for trusting me as your Boston City Hall wedding photographer. It has been a pleasure getting to know you both and an honor to photograph you. Thank you for insisting I join you in a glass of champagne after your wedding! Wishing you a life of love, laughter, health and happiness together!
