TRON said: Wow. What an amazing time. I won't get overly wordy for a number of reasons. There are a million things I could say about my brother Ian and his beautiful wife Tracy. And perhaps I'll get around to some of those thoughts later in this thread. But for now, I want to just say that my time here in Australia has been remarkable and that their wedding could not have been any more gorgeous. Considering all the obstacles in my way, I am so grateful that I was able to attend. This has been 2 of the best weeks of my life and I will never forget this trip as long as I live. I'm so proud of them for taking a chance and devoting their lives to one another. I'm in awe of their relationship constantly and I coudn't pick a better girl for my baby bro.
I'm sure that Ian and Tracy have many amazing professional shots to share, but they've been so busy and so run down from all of the imigration stuff and wedding planning that I wanted to share what I have. I think I'm the only one who was able to take black & white photos and they came out perfectly. It's the cold and rainy season here in Sydney, but on their wedding day it was sunny, clear and quite warm - near 70 degrees. These shots are taken from the wedding itself and then later at Kurungai (sp?) National Park where Ian proposed to Tracy and also at the local zoo. Enjoy! Just after becoming man and wife... A kiss... Signing the book... Mama's boys... Where they first got engaged... These next two are among the most beautiful pictures I've ever seen. I think they say it all. These were taken on the stone steps of the park... And from the other direction. This one's going on my wall... Ian's personal favorite... Instructions from the photographer... The photographer posing me. Looking very GQ if I do say so myself. The family... The wedding party... Overlooking the Tazman Sea... The mothers being fabulous during their cigarette break... Ian and Tracy with the Opera House in the background... Ian and mom share a dance on the wharf... My mom and I on the windy ferry ride to the zoo... An extra smiley moment for the new sibs... Sydney Bridge... The kangaroos actually let us pet them... This one liked the taste of Tracy's bag... An unfortune pose with me and my new lover the emu... Ian's beloved obsession ~ the elusive wombat... That's all for now. I'm sure there will be many more to come. But I know there are many who have been begging to see these and I don't blame them. I'm so happy with how the black and whites came out. They're all from one roll and they're all keepers. Thanks for the support from everyone on this site. It means a lot to Ian, Tracy and my family. This has been a really important and life-changing time and it's been a joy to share it with all of you. Wow what a beautiful baht 1 U.S. Dollar = 34 Bahts

Okay. I'm home. In a million pieces. But forever changed by this trip. Once I've finally slept and can stop myself from crying so much, I'll say my closing thoughts. Thank you to everyone who posted on this thread and for sharing in our family's lives and joy. | |

Wow...wow...wow... words aren't enough to explain the feelings that go through me when I look at these beautiful pics, thinking of Ian and Diva and the fact that now they finally have each other, for always. Just looking at these pics should be enough to convince Immigrations people that it's a real relationship and a real marriage... just look at the way they look into each other's eyes...
Too beautiful, I'm crying full out and I'm not even mushy like that. I wish you all the best in the world, and that you're together forever. | |

That is too sweet ~ I just showed them to my mom and she is thrilled at how happy Ian looks. She said after all the sadness of the past two years, it is a joy to see such a huge smile on his face. She thinks Tracy is absolutely beautiful and loves the pics!!!! Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife. --Kahlil Gibran | |

I bet it was Rope of Silicon! Nope! Actually, it was "And God Created Woman". There's a whole story to go along with it too. Maybe I'll write it later today. | |

You know what's really interesting? During my trip I saw so much of your mother in Ian, especially that smile. But in these pictures, he looks so much like your father. Amazing. 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |
