Maybe drawing consequences from just a single sample is not an idea – but the image I got about Bavaria and all the Bavarian people in this weekend is such a strong positive that sets my mind, definitely. :)\u00a0Bavaria is an absolutely picturesque, nice and tidy landscape rolling with hills and valleys; nice little towns and villages, “Kirchturms” (English apparently does have a single word for that, German and Hungarian has it). Simply a place where you can easily feel like home, and be relaxed just by sitting down and looking around.<\/p>\n

Similar good experience with the people, at least those who are getting married, or being invited to a wedding (based on my sampling, at least).\u00a0Even though it may not be the experience about Germans in general; Bavaria must be somewhat different: I have arrived from somewhere abroad (Hungary); didn’t know anyone (except a lovely couple*) in advance – still, all those people were so friendly and natural, didn’t let me feel a foreigner; while I was working, felt like one of them. Enjoyed it a lot.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned, there was however a couple, or rather a family by this time, whom I knew. A few years ago I was gifted with them: I had shot one of my career’s best and favorite photos of that angel-faced blondie girl, with a rolling teardrop on an Alpine mountaintop wedding<\/a> – and now, she had the most joyful curves a girl can have; awaiting the second baby to be born. And what was absolutely in common between Nina (the bridesmaid) and Lea (the bride), and also their beloved ones: they were simply living their emotions.<\/p>\n

I loved it. When we were in the church, during the ceremony, I was just sitting on the floor with my camera in hand… and I felt happy like a kid. Not because of the (otherwise nice) interior, neither the lights, but the faces: that’s what a wedding photographer is always dreaming of. What anyone could simply read from their faces (especially the privileged photographer, facing and not being behind them) was the pure joy; simple, natural emotions. Living the moment, You can even see when they were lost in their thoughts about being there. I do not exactly know what makes it so obvious for some, and maybe keeps it more inside for others – but based on the wedding of Lea & Anton now, and Nina & Sebi a few years back, if that’s anyhow connected to the region, I would like to go more often there. “Those, who have ears to hear, let them hear!” :)<\/p>\n

After all, I was not there just to get some really good memories (even though it’s important for me); but also to make some long-living memories for those inviting me. So let me end my blogpost here with the wedding slideshow, and a short selection of my favourite images:<\/p>\n
