Part of Richards Studio Photographs
One of the largest weddings photographed by the Richards studio was the marriage of Virginia Lee (Wendy) Wagner to George Hunt Weyerhaeuser (eight and nine from left) in the summer of 1948. The wedding took place in the gardens of "Lakewold", the Wagner estate. With a wedding party and guest list of Washington's most prominent, Associated Press covered the event. The noteworthy marriage received front page coverage in the Tacoma Sunday Ledger/News Tribune and an entire page in the society section which featured Richards photographs of the event.
