Bill + Patricia :: 50 years married

May 18, 2011

One of my very good photographer friends, Melanie, asked me to photograph her in-laws 50th wedding celebration last month at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort and Spa. What an absolute treat!

Meet Bill and Patricia…they are ridiculously in love! Bill is a suave gentleman whose smooth talk and cheeky smile lights Patricia up like a Christmas tree! Just LOOK! She is glowing! And that is after 50 years together, they were as twitter-pated over each other as my couples about to get married.

Their story was truly incredible and being able to photograph them was a true honor. You see, Bill and Patricia literally ran away together and got married when they were both students at Georgetown University. They were married at the courthouse and Patricia’s maid of honor was there and gave a speech. They even had a wedding cake make up because they never.

Bills grandson, Leo, was very excited about the cake.
