What did he say in her ear? This Emotional Wedding Moment Even Made the Photographer Cry Elise Solé 3 hours ago A photo of a newly married couple engaged in an intimate moment, has gone viral. (Photo: Facebook/James Day Photography) A photograph of a groom whispering in the ear of his tearful bride has tugged at the heartstrings of even the most unromantic. The image was posted on Facebook April 30th, by Australian photographer James Day and features a couple named Adrian and Roslyn at their Bowral wedding. “Tonight I was photographing Adrian & Roslyn at sunset,” wrote Day on the photo that received 169K reactions and nearly 38K shares. “I was setting up those grand sunset scenes… you know the ones… the little people in a big scene… I love those kinda shots… but tonight that just didn’t seem enough.” He continued, “Just as the light became amazing I scrapped everything I knew and I walked up to them and said, ‘Guys, stop posing. Just enjoy your first sunset together as husband and wife.’ They then held each other in the most beautiful way… It was so much more beautiful than anything I could ever set up.” Then the photographer said to Adrian, “‘I have a question for you, but I want you to tell the answer to Roslyn and not me. Out of the billions of people on the planet, you’ve chosen to spend the rest of your life with Roslyn. Can you tell her why?'” Soon thereafter, Day “could start seeing Roslyn’s eyes glisten, then the most beautiful tears streamed down her face.” Then, Day found himself crying. On Facebook, the photo is being called “raw,” rare, and heartfelt. Ryszard |
