Dear Photograph,
Once upon a time we stood in the same doorway. See you again, God willing.

The website DearPhotograph.com started it all. Return to the scene of an old photograph and take the picture again — but superimposing the original image in place. It takes a bit of trial and error to get it just right, but the results are a kind of photographic time machine.
This weekend, Mr. Curator and I returned to Santa Barbara to revisit old haunts. First stop was noon Mass at the church where we were married.

Looks like we said “I do.”

Awwww, that is so nice. Wishing you many more return trips!
Michelle Goodrum says
How fun to make the trip and the photo effects turned out beautifully. Congratulations on your anniversary.
Denise Levenick says
Hard to believe, same time, same place, only the characters have "changed." We had a great time for our photo shoot; much more fun then waiting around for a wedding photographer.
Thanks for all the congrats. Here's to next year!
Donner says
