Getting Married at City Hall NYC

Perhaps you’re a last minute planner, perhaps you go down to the molecule on a spread sheet. In any case, the whole process is very civilized. On the day, after arrival and check in, you get your number, as in a deli-style number. Then, simply pay the fee to the cashier; it’s approximately $30USD.

I think basic human decency overrides anything a pundit or politician could every say. But I do love photographing politicians.
