Naked Bike Ride Photobombs Wedding
Bike-themed weddings aren’t unheard of, but a wedding getting photobombed by 3,000 naked cyclists? Now that’s news.
Ross Cohen and Blair Delson were in the middle of their wedding photo shoot (shot by JPG Photography studio owner Joseph Gidjunis) in Philadelphia's Dilworth Plaza last weekend when things were interrupted—or enhanced by—a massive naked bike ride.
Rather than get upset, the couple opted to make the best of the situation and pose with many of the riders, resulting in a unique image collection that’s been making its rounds on news sites worldwide. The couple is beaming at the camera in most of the shots, surrounded by colorful cyclists of all ages, sizes, and levels of undress.

"We thought it was hilarious," Delson told reporters before heading off on her honeymoon. Instead of simply waiting for the herd of cyclists to pass, Delson admitted that she "sprinted in [her] heels and [her] wedding gown and decided to get in on the action.”
As for the cool-headed photographer who captured the action? “I worked with newspapers for about 10 years,” Gidjunis said. “That love of moments and stories is key for me. I gave the couple a little direction as to where they should stand, but I told them to just do what felt right. Letting everything go on around them... made them stars. I was just so happy we were in the right place at the right time.”
