Technicolor Life - Bill McCullough

Documentary photographers choose a particular area of human experience with which to frame their work. For some it's the street, while for others it's the family, social injustice, or a particular conflict. Bill McCullough is unusual in exploring a ritual activity that is often overlooked or seen as photographically banal. In the process he reveals that wedding photography can be a serious genre of documentary practice. McCullough steps beyond his clients' need for a formal record of their big day to study the wedding as a laboratory of human behavior.
