Standing on the Side of Love

Standing on the Side of Love: A Family-Friendly Celebration of NH’s Civil Union Law January 1, 2008, Noon - 3PM South Church UU, State Street Portsmouth, NH

I was honored to be asked to photograph this once in a lifetime event celebrating the institution of NH Civil Unions. Although yet another snow storm was in our forecast, 250 people attended the well planned worship/concert/potluck/PARTY! There was a plethora of media coverage - and while that's all well and good, there were a few times I couldn't get another photographer out of my shot! In all though, it was quite a successful day - and as the Rev. Roberta Finkelstein, succinctly summed up "We let ourselves celebrate and honor this moment. But let this day also remind us that full marriage equality is still in our future in New Hampshire if we continue to make it so."
