Kesia and Don booked me two weeks before their wedding. Late bookings aren’t uncommon — sometimes other plans fall through, sometimes a day comes together faster than expected. Either way, it works out, and these are often the weddings I remember most.
The ceremony was held in the Botanical Garden in Oslo — green, full of summer, light filtering through the trees. Afterwards the party moved on to Høyres hus, and that’s where the day really came to life. It turned into a proper celebration — toasts, dancing, speeches and family who didn’t want the evening to end. As I understood it, it was a Thai wedding, and you could feel that in the energy — warm, a lot of laughter, and the couple at the centre of it all.
These are the kinds of weddings you learn a lot from. At this wedding I discovered, after one of the speeches, that my camera hadn’t been recording video — only audio. The kind of mistake that has made me paranoid in a good way: now I double-check that it’s actually recording every single time I press record. Routines like that are built by learning the hard way.
The film I came away with still turned out well, I think. That’s what you can see above.
There are no photographs from this day — but the film is here for you to watch.
