I met Meghan and Josh at the first command event we attended here in Italy.  They are warm, friendly, very intelligent and go-getters.  Since they've gotten to Italy, they've spent some time apart as Josh has flown back to the States for work a few times for a week or more each trip.  She contacted me to photograph them for their anniversary of their first year of marriage, and I jumped at the chance!  Through our correspondence and reading their wedding blog, I learned more about them as individuals and as a couple.  For example, they both are adventurers.  They met during a semester study abroad in Scotland, coincidentally bumping into each other on the bus and became fast friends and travel buddies; and as you can see, the rest is history.

Via Toledo: Quiet among the bustle

They arrived in Italy about the same time we did, and they haven't sat still yet.  I had a wonderful time grabbing a pastry and caffe along Via San Carlo, soaking up the drizzle and dodging Vespas and Fiats with you two!!  

Enjoy! I promise, this is not a backdrop.     

There's always some kind of street performer in Galleria Umberto.

Among the columns at Piazza Plebiscito.

Castel Nuovo It's always when I'm about to wrap up, that I turn a corner and find a fun little spot. This is a sculpture garden of horses, coming out of a concrete hill of sorts. I should have taken a full view for perspective. It was interesting.

Buona giornata amici!
