Today I had the privilege of capturing a beautiful couple. Yes, this was my first 'couple' shoot and so it helped that I had some very patient people. It just so happened that they were my parents :D Not really knowing what to expect we braved the windy outdoors and began the shoot. Honestly as I was shooting I really had no idea what I was doing...but it was so much fun :)
The story of my parents and their lives can really be described by the following song. One day I would like to share their story of redemption and restoration, but that will be for another day. Right now I praise Jesus for the amazing parents that He has given me. I am amazed and so grateful, especially as I viewed them through my lens today.
Thanks to Em for helping as well!
enjoy
be blessed

I was nineteen, you were twenty-one
The year we got engaged
Everyone said we were much too young
But we did it anyway
We bought our rings for forty each
From a pawn shop down the road
We made our vows and took the leap
Now fifteen years ago
We went dancing in the minefields
We went sailing in the storm
And it was harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for
"I do" are the two most famous last words
The beginning of the end
But to lose your life for another I've heard
Is a good place to begin
'Cause the only way to find your life
Is to lay your own life down
And I believe it's an easy price
For the life that we have found
And we're dancing in the minefields
We're sailing in the storm
This is harder than we dreamed
But I believe that's what the promise is for
So when I lose my way, find me
When I loose love's chains, bind me
At the end of all my faith, till the end of all my days
When I forget my name, remind me

'Cause we bear the light of the Son of Man
So there's nothing left to fear
So I'll walk with you in the shadowlands
Till the shadows disappear

'Cause he promised not to leave us
And his promises are true
So in the face of all this chaos, baby,
I can dance with you
