Three days to Valentine’s Day and counting! Love is in the air and it’s reminding me of what a wonderful job I have being able to capture loving, romantic, exciting moments in people’s lives through the lens of my camera. I’ve had the pleasure of being present and witness to some of the most heartwarming and inspiring romantic moments, from engagement sessions to anniversaries to weddings to just-because-we-feel-like-staring-into-each-other’s-eyes.
In honor of Valentine’s Day, I’m sharing some all-time favorite romantic photos. To me, romance = everything from sweet to spontaneous and especially steamy, and I think all of those are covered in these photos!
My favorite moments to capture during any photo shoot are the candid, intimate, being-present ones. That moment when you think no one is really looking and you can sneak in a quick smooch, whisper something sweet to your loved one, gaze at your sweetheart while taking in the day, or crack a joke to get a giggle. My camera is always ready to capture those precious moments. They make my heart sing.
This Valentine’s Day, I encourage you to be present with your significant other. The cynics say it’s a “Hallmark holiday” meant to exploit love to make a buck. But I know you, and you are no cynic. You know it’s another day of the year to celebrate love – to set aside time in your busy life especially for your special someone. To sneak the smooches, whisper sweet nothings, gaze into their eyes, and make them giggle. Create those moments this Valentine’s Day.
And gather some inspiration from these love birds <3
