Oblowitz/Dugdale marriage

 The marriage took place 6 July, 2024, between Orson Oblowitz, an American film director, and Clementine Alexandra Louise Dugdale (born 1991), elder daughter of Sir William Matthew Stratford Dugdale, 3rd Baronet (born 22 February, 1959), and his wife the former Paige Sullivan Perkins.

Orson Oblowitz is an American filmmaker, photographer, and cinematographer based in Los Angeles, renowned for his independent feature films that delve into the gritty undercurrents of urban life, capitalism, and personal alienation. Born to filmmaker Michael Oblowitz and actress Rosemary Hochschild—both key figures in New York's No Wave cinema movement of the 1970s and 1980s—Oblowitz grew up dividing his time between New York City and Los Angeles, immersing himself early in the worlds of photography and film.

 He began photographing subjects at age 10 with a Pentax point-and-shoot camera, often capturing candid street scenes from his New York apartment window. Oblowitz later studied film and photography at Emerson College, honing a style influenced by low-budget auteurs like Roger Corman, Larry Cohen, and Sam Fuller, as well as the experimental edge of No Wave cinema from his parents' era.
