웨딩 드레스를 손보는 손과 신부의 미소가 담긴 장면
웨딩 드레스를 손보는 손과 신부의 미소가 담긴 장면
Tristan Tan

Happiness and grief are not emotions you would expect to co-exist at a wedding but somehow, it did for me on the day my older brother and sister-in-law got married. In 2022, months before my brother and sister-in-law got married, my paternal granddad passed on, missing his chance to see his very first grandchild get married. And being the secondary photographer at your sibling's wedding with that reminder just flashing through your mind the entire day, it silently increases the weight of your role and responsibility to document the occasion. Photographed is my paternal grandma who is still alive but does not remember my granddad due to her dementia and my brother alongside my sister-in-law who is telling my grandma that they were getting married that very day. The reason I chose this photo among all the photos I shot that day was because of how intimate it felt and how it reminded me of the importance of documentation. Although my granddad never made it to the wedding, my grandma did and for that, I'm thankful I got to document these moments during such a loaded occasion. With all that in mind, I hope you walk away from this photo, documenting more moments in your own life because someday, someone would want to look back on a moment when they still had you.
