With permission I will post two pictures from the photo shoot this morning at Alki. The weather was splendid; warding off the Brides belief that rain on a wedding day is unlucky, there was no chance of rain on this day. Unfortunately the Algae did not cooperate, loading the gills of anything under the surface, it made photography on this special day very difficult. Thus the darkness of the two thumbnails attached.
When Curt told me I should arrive at cove 2 around 7:30AM to maximize the Tide and water conditions, well, thats pretty early on a Sunday. On the way there I heard on KOMO radio a interview by our Newlywed couple (What a Thrill) There was even a Photographer from the paper there. After the morning dive I hustled home to copy the Pic's to a disc, and I made them a silly Movie too.
Returning back to Alkiwith the CD's, I noticed Local camera crews filming the event. Everyone here knows what a nice sunny day it was today. The coverage the wedding got was impressive, and I feel it provided a boost for the diving community.
I had never met Curt or Mel before today, but I can tell you this, in a day and age were the commitment of marriage changes with the tide, the commitment that I seen between these two wonderful people, when they looked at each other, was moving. I wish them many wonderful years of marital bliss, G_D bless.
