This renowned wedding photographer tells one of the scenes that probably surprised her the most during his career.
Getting married is one of the best days of our life. For parents, it is also an accomplishment: beyond making his child autonomous and able to manage his adult life, we really see him starting his life as a couple and his family life. And above all, we hope, as a parent, never miss this event. As a child, one does not imagine living this moment without one of our pillars, whether it is a father or a mother. But unfortunately, life sometimes decides otherwise. This is what happened to a young bride, who did not conceive a second to marry the man of his life without his father by his side, who died before the ceremony.
In a video published on the YouTube Legend account, journalist Guillaume Pley receives Greg Finck, one of the best wedding photographers in the world which tells his astonishment during this union like no other.

But what marked the professional is that the young woman rented “a father”. The latter, “about sixty years appearing as a suit,” he said, went well for a caring father in the photos. But that’s not what shocked it the most.
Before the bride were “A dozen bridesmaids who were 6-7-year-old girls, were all really beautiful “ The photographer was surprised. It turns out that they came from the Moscow Opera. “”We took ballerinas, and they are the ones who make the children of honor“, He adds, regretting that it is a” show “for certain couples who sometimes invite more business relations than their own family to their marriage. That said, only his mother (and his father) counted in the eyes of this bereaved bride.
That day, the photographer immortalized much more than a ceremony: he captured a heartbreaking choice, between pain and resilience. If some will see a slightly licked staging there, others will especially retain the strength of a woman determined to honor the memory of her father in her own way. In emotion as in staging, this marriage will remain engraved – for guests as for those who discover it today.
