"Oh, I can tell you two are truly in love." What?! Really. As a stranger who has never met the couple you can tell that they are truly in love? I always got a bitter look on my face whenever I heard someone saying things like that. How can they possibly know? Jennifer and Graham are the first couple who really made me think that there are circumstances where you really can tell.
Graham is a shy, quiet guy with bright blue eyes and a heart that pounds for only one woman. The lucky woman wore red that day and a sassy pair of heeled boots that just reflected her flirty personality. The two of them were total opposites, but complete compliments all at once. It didn't take long until I realized that this was my "Oh, I can tell you two are truly in love" kind of couple. Of course they did everything just like any other couple, but there was one thing that just explained how deep there love really was.
It started with a light sigh and then it became a deeper sigh. That same breath turned into a heavy heart pounding sigh that let me know that he was more than a little stressed out. Graham was having a hard time. He doesn't like pictures and actually gets outrageously nervous in this exact kind of situation. He never said one complaining word, never a bad look and never refused to smile when Jennifer beamed at him. He just wanted to do his best for the one he loved even though it might have killed him a little inside. He took gorgeous pictures because he really loved her. He didn't know what else to do, but look at her and love her. I kept thinking to myself that he could have just refused to be there or be an "active" part in the photo shoot. But for him to show up and try as hard as he could really showed me that they were truly in love. He took another deep sigh just to calm himself down and it warmed my heart.
I have since told their story to several of my friends who adore tales of love just as much as I do.
Jennifer and Graham, you are a beautiful couple. I want to thank you Graham for being so amazing throughout the entire shoot. I think you have really set the bar for guys...even if it was only Eddie and I watching.



Whenever we have a photo shoot with a new couple we try to build our shoot around who they are together not who we want them to be in that environment. One of my favorite parts of this photo shoot was that it was just so Jennifer + Graham.







We asked them to sit across from each other and just spend time together and this is what we got. Two totally different personalities and a love that just works so well together.
