When my heart melts, and only the NSA knows…
There couldn't be a better end of the 2019 wedding season, as the wedding of Marina and Uli in Kesselhaus Kolbermoor. It was already the 4th wedding of the "Munich troop". It felt like old friends coming together again. I like these Bayern guys, they are open, always ready for a joke (e.g. golf car racing around the hotel) and party like there is no tmr.
When inner and outer beauty comes together in one couple, it is a pure joy to photograph. Marina and Uli are such a nice people. The whole wedding day was covered with their feeling of harmony and love.
Preparations took place in the B&O Hotel, which was previously a US military station. In the close vicinity you can still observe giant "golf balls" of the NSA (National Security Agency) satellites. I was eager to do the couple shoot there, but found out that taking photos is prohibited under fine of 5000 EUR :-( Anyway if you are around Bad Aibling check these cosmic cold war monuments.
Party was moved to the old boiler house of the old spinning factory. Beautifully renovated it is now a great wedding location. The iconic russian vehicle Moskvich was a perfect accessories for this industrial-urban wedding. I really like how the old industrial buildings are keeping their spirit and are changed to chic cultural hubs in Germany.
But now, warm up your fingers and scroll down through this wedding story.
