”It was back in 2005,” Dodds remembers. ”It had many ‘firsts.’ It was the first same-sex wedding I’d ever attended. It was the first wedding I’d ever photographed where no one was wearing a white gown. And it was the first time that this couple had kissed in front of their families, during the ceremony. Those were my first clues that, yeah, these weddings are a little different.”
