I am loving, LOVING!, my time with the couples who chose me as their wedding photographer. Sometimes I just can't believe that this is my job! It is such a gift to watch two people so in love at the edge of starting such a beautiful journey. James & I are 13 years into the journey and life sometimes hardens you to the beauty of new love. Not only do I get the chance to remember what it was like then but I can also find gratefulness in the love we have found in time. There is a quote by CS Lewis that I think about all the time:
"Being in love’ first moved them to promise fidelity: this quieter love enables them to keep the promise. it is on this love that the engine of marriage is run: being in love was the explosion that started it.” CS Lewis
I love the loud, explosive love that I see through my lens with these couples. But I pray that in 10, 20, 50 years that their love would become a love that will move quietly along the journey.
Here's to a gorgeous couple - Mallory+Ross! I can't wait to be apart of their big day.
