i love this picture

these are "los pedos" or "the farts," as they call themselves. most probably, english-speakers won't get that this is actually a term of endearment. so, she would say to him, "i love you, my little fart," and that is actually very romantic.

if you didn't recognize this particular term of endearment they use to call each other or if you didn't recognize their behinds, these are my sister dana and my cuñao rafa on the day of their wedding, back in june. they just received their wedding pictures and they sent some of them to me.

to me, this one captures everything that their marriage should be: the beginning of a long journey that they are to walk together. the outfits (i love the umbrella), the austerity of the landscape, and the black & white development of the photo make it seem as though it was taken a very long time ago. somehow i get the impression that their love is eternal.

it'd better be!

i love you, peditos.
