A federal court has dismissed a lawsuit filed by a Christian wedding photographer who claimed that providing services to same-sex couples goes against her faith and that New York's human rights law violates her First Amendment rights.
A Virginia-based photographer has filed a lawsuit in federal court claiming that the state's new anti-discrimination law infringes on his first amendment rights.

A Christian wedding photographer is suing her home city of Louisville, Kentucky over a government ordinance that she claims infringes on her religious freedom by "forcing" her to photograph and blog about same-sex weddings.
At the height of AIDS hysteria in the 1980s, when some people still wondered if the disease could be passed to others through day-to-day contact, photographer Sage Sohier was going into same-sex couples' homes and photographing them for a series and photo book that came to be known as At Home With Themselves: Same-Sex Couples in 1980s America.
The project captured an intimate portrait of the gay community that was at odds with the headlines of the day, and made all the more poignant by the backdrop of the AIDS epidemic against which it was created.
A widely-reported legal case involving a same-sex couple and the photography studio that refused to shoot their wedding reached its conclusion earlier today when the Supreme Court refused to hear the case, putting an end to nearly eight years of litigation.
