I see you

I have shot many weddings over the years, but one will leave lasting memories in my heart.
Earlier this year, I received a call from my wedding fellow DJ, who had undertaken to find a photographer for the wedding of a very unusual couple.
When I realized that Kalina and Victor were blind, I was a little worried and wondered what their photographer was after they would never see their pictures. From the moment I personally met them, however, I already knew the answer to my question. Because they both see with their hearts and because they will see them through the eyes of their relatives, friends and children!
The story of both of them is unusual, Victor is blind by birth, and Kalina is losing sight when she is just 10 years old, but that does not prevent them from living a much more fulfilling and dynamic life than many other people in the "normal" position. Victor offers a marriage to Kalina when they climb together the highest peak on the Balkan Peninsula, Mount Musala. They are both sworn mountaineers and lovers of the extreme – jumping with a parachute and flying a paraglider.
Like all of them, their whole wedding day was unusual – the groom stole the bride after her girlfriends dropped her with fifth-floor climbing equipment through the balcony of her parents' apartment. After the church ritual, the newlyweds had planned to appear in the paraglider , but unfortunately the weather has thwarted this idea, so they had a backup plan – they came on a horse! Their horse! Another surprise for parents and guests who did not stop applauding them and enjoying them. When the ritual of their marriage ended, it was time to marry their faithful companions Karma and Hidalgo! Gowned in suit and dress, their dogs drank an "YES" in an improvised but very gratifying ceremony.
I do not usually allow such long descriptions under the wedding stories I publish, but I believe that this is different and would touch the hearts of many people just as Kalina and Victor touched mine. Their love is rare, because they have never seen themselves with their eyes, yet they seem born to each other!P.S.
In the organization of their wedding took part a lot of great and talented colleagues who I could not count, but this is another proof that there is good in this world and it always overcomes!
