where love breathes

“Ask me to define

my love for you

and I’ll say it’s

captured in every

beautiful memory

of our past,

detailed out in

the vivid visions

of our dreams and future plans,

but most of all

it’s right now,

in the moment

where everything

I’ve ever wanted

in my life is

standing right

in front of me

and smiling.”

Leo Christopher

There’s so much I want to say about this session.  So much.  Words could never do it justice though.  This couple we’re such a pleasure to photograph and spend time with.  They were truly a gift.  Well, they received the session as a gift, but I feel I won something magnificent on some scale.  They reminded me of the joy that lives in a relationship.  The fun, the laughter, that sometimes gets lost in the mass of everyday meanderings.  One thing I love about photographing couples is how very individual every love is….they’ve each walked their own path; fought their own battles; overcome the odds that two personalities place upon it; relationships are such a beautiful thing.  The gentle ways you see people show that they care for their beloved.  The moving of a fly-way hair; the gentle brushing of a hand; the little quiet secret smile that you could easily miss if you weren’t watching; love in all it’s little manners and ways.  Such a joy to witness; such a privilege to share.  It never fails to make me draw and hold my breath.

Thank you for sharing that with me x

now is where love breathes
