This book project follows mother and the bride designing a wedding dress
The first pictures were made in late 2019
The wedding was initially planned for the summer of 2020
The couple was forced to postpone their wedding until 2021 due to the pandemic
Naturally, my project had to adapt
The final series of pictures deal with themes including family history, process, the pandemic, and the nature of documentary photography

I used photomontage and analog photography
It also includes 35mm and large format 4×5, polaroid, mixed media, photograms, and digital imaging
