Mandi and Brad

 

 

 

This couple was one of the most comfortable in front of the camera I have ever met!   I could have photographed them ALL DAY LONG!

They have not been married for very long so it felt like an engagement shoot.

One of the things that really stood out to me with this couple was how much they enjoy being with each other. They laugh a lot and are just delighted to be together.

A few years ago I took pictures for my church of all the people who can no longer get out to church.  One couple now lives in a nursing home, if I remember correctly they have to have separate rooms, but they meet each other down in the main room early in the morning and spend the rest of their day there.  They sit side by side in their respective wheelchairs smiling and laughing and holding hands.  Everyone in the nursing home knows about their love.  That is totally how I picture this couple sixty years from now..still laughing still in love.

What a cute couple!!! My fav. is the one where you are looking down at them----the 9th picture.

I hope that they ALWAYS enjoy and love each other in a glorious fulfilling way . . . God's blessings upon them and their new life as one.

how lucky for them to be close enough

to have an eye such as yours capture them.

they do indeed look happy, and content in their love

for one another, and it certainly shows through in your photos.

be well,
