I met Jake and Brad the same day I met Betsy and Clara – the day the Supreme Court declared equal marriage rights to all citizens. Clara chased down their officiant to have him marry Jake and Brad on the spot after having just obtained their marriage license at the Franklin County Courthouse across the street, so I offered to photograph their wedding as well. For theirs, we headed into the park area, nestled in some trees. It was such a lovely little ceremony, with Betsy and Clara – and, of course, the Dispatch photographer again and the Ohio History Connection women – in attendance. Such a special, special day and the connection everyone felt to everyone else was so warm and genuine.
Congratulations, Jake and Brad and Betsy and Clara!!
