June is LGBT Pride Month, and these photos celebrate the love and joy that partnership can bring. Recognition and acceptance are the fruits of a long and difficult struggle, and while there is still progress to be made, perceptions are changing for the better. However, with our eyes looking to a hopeful future (like these couples), we must not forget the past, and those who fought for the rights that some (but not all) LGBT communities enjoy today.

The Stonewall riots that began after a police raid on a LGBT-friendly hotel in New York City on the morning of June 28, 1969 pushed LGBT activism into the mainstream. Brenda Howard, known as “The Mother of Pride,” coordinated the first LGBT Pride march a year after the riots, and Pride month was born. US President Barack Obama has officially declared Pride Month every year he has been in office.

My old college roommate just got married and they wore the same colors. She wore white and her wife was wore black. Both dresses were gorgeous and very classic.

    tiffany and her husband were the best photography team ever. They were everywhere, but almost always out of sight! This was taken on our walk from the ceremony site tonoyt reception venue down the road. This moment is literally the pinnacle of joy, happiness, love and of a once forgotten dream come true...to marry the man I love.

    That photo just radiates love, from the looks on their faces, to the way they hold each other. I've seen a lot of wedding photographs, being friends with numerous photographers, and this is one of the few I've seen where the couple aren't playing for the crowd or showing off a complex dance routine. They look like they don't know anyone else is in the room. This is a beautiful example of love, not of gay marriage or straight marriage, but love itself.

    The weddings of older people are the ones that really get me. You just think, how long have they waited for this moment. How much c**p have they went through to get here. That's not to say seeing younger couples getting married isn't a great thing, but it's the older generation that I think has the strongest impact.
