Tom Thumb Wedding - Black and White
The practice of Tom Thumb weddings can be traced back to a dwarf or little person named Tom Thumb who traveled with P. T. Barnum's circus in the mid 1800's. In 1863, "General Tom Thumb" married a Ms Lavinia Warren (another little person) in New York.

My name is Jayson Tuntland. I am a photographic artist, U.S. Army veteran, and native resident of La Moille, IL. My visual artwork is comprised of both my own photography and antique photograph restoration. Much of my personal photographic work seeks to capture and share the beauty of the natural world. My photographic restorations generally fall into one of two categories. The first being historical preservation.
