āUntil Death Do Us Partā focuses on the unexpected role cigarettes play in Chinese weddings.

The bride and the groom are then invited to play some cigarette-smoking games of an unprecedented ingenuousness. This publication pays homage to a tradition in which love and death walk hand in hand.
These photos come from the Beijing Silvermine project, an archive of half a million negatives salvaged over the years from a recycling plant on the edge of Beijing.
Extraordinary cigarette pack sized photobook.
