DEK Photography: Waiting at the Dock

It's the 1920s. The city docks. A lovely girl is waiting for her sailor husband to arrive. The reflection on the car door reveals a fisherman, hoping to catch his family's dinner. It's the Great Depression and everyone is scraping by somehow. Money is not a problem only for the mobsters, peering at the port from their tall glass building in the distance.

It was actually a wedding shoot. I dropped in and took a couple of shots of the bridesmaids. But the fictional story complements the photo much better, right?
