I’ve promised these for a long time, finally here they are: The pictures of Calin’s and Domnita’s wedding. It’s a wide edit, but it was also an eventful day. Thanks again to both of you, Calin and Domnita! This was an amazing experience and I’m sure we’ll remember it for a looong time…

I realized that I still owe some pictures from our trip to Romania – I apologize for the delay, but my Lightroom catalog got corrupted with all the edits that I had done on my takes there, and I was simply too lazy over the past two weeks to redo it all.
I decided to split the Romania pictures up in two sets – one with general shots from our time there, especially with our friends. The second one, which I will post shortly, is going to be exclusively of Calin and Domnita’s wedding and the preparations.
It was a great experience to visit Romania, and it was not at all what I had expected. I was impressed with the beauty of the country and the rich German heritage in large parts of Transylvania, and I can’t wait to go back there. At this point, I’d like to express our gratitude again to Calin and his family for everything, and also to our dear friends Catalin Abagiu and Vivian Esparza for their companionship, as well as Catalin’s wonderful mom for her caring hospitality.

The man of the hour has every reason to be happy: Our dear friend Calin Ilea, who got married to his sweetheart Domnita on July 7, only to celebrate his birthday three days later. Sighisoara, Tuesday, July 10, 2012.

One of the things that really stuck with me is how colorful the houses are in Transylvania. Passing through a typical village on our drive from Medias to Sighisoara with Catalin and Vivian. Tuesday, July 10, 2012.

After a week of scourging temperatures that gave me a nasty case of prickly heat around the neck, a cooling thunderstorm finally gave us a little break. Targu Mures, Tuesday, July 10, 2012.
The next day had us sweating bullets again, so we took a little walk to the public pool in Targu Mures for a refreshing dip. Wednesday, July 11, 2012.
I really love the landscape in Transylvania. It reminds me of my home, only slighlty more hilly. Between Targu Mures and Sighisoara, Thursday, July 12, 2012.
