“You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.” Dr. Seuss
Vanessa and Steve are the poster children for young love. When we sat down for our final “walk through”, Vanessa asked that I would shoot the wedding with young love in mind. I mulled this over and over again in my head. How does one portray young love in a photograph? Playful? Giddy? And then the idea of balloons popped into my head. They somehow were a great metaphor for young love—they are light, cheerful and they represent something to be celebrated. And young love should be celebrated. It is pure and true and perfectly vulnerable. One never experiences love the same after her first.
Vanessa and Steve—you guys truly warm my heart! It was such an honor to be a part of such a beautiful celebration… congratulations!
