A Couple Love Story Told in an artful way.
Some love stories aren’t loud. We focused on the softens, the textures, the grain, the water, the colors, the FEELING. No need grand gestures or perfectly posed moments to be felt. They exist in the quiet—the way two people naturally move toward each other, the way their energy softens when they’re close. We did this shoot at 6 am. Yeah that’s right. We had to leave Seattle at 4:45 to get to this place so early that nobody else would be there. It’s a popular spot, so shooting there later is a gamble. It’s really only hard for a half hour, then your awake!
These two are highly creative people, so they wanted a creative session. I used my little prism in front of my lens to create blur and colors. I used heavy grain to create a timeless textured look. They dressed in timeless clothing, which I LOVE. Cel brought two dresses, and one piece of fabric which she draped on her- and some roses. Z brought two looks and a banjo. We had coffee, laughs, songs, and really enjoyed every moment of this beautiful photoshoot.
If the coffee didn’t wake you, the chilly waterfall will!
The images weren’t about sharp perfection—they carried motion, light, grain. A feeling rather than a flawless frame. This session wasn’t about creating images to look at. It was about creating something to feel.
“If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.”
“Little drops of rain whisper of the pain of tears left behind.”
Led Zeppelin
“Upon us all a little rain must fall.”
“I felt the coldness of my winter, I never thought it would ever go.”
“In the light of the day, you showed me what my life could be.” - Led Zeppelin
“And the songbirds are singing like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you like never before.” Fleetwood Mac
“But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we—
Of many far wiser than we—
And neither the angels in Heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.” Edgar Allen Poe
“The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix forever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In one spirit meet and mingle—
Why not I with thine?
See the mountains kiss high heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth
And the moonbeams kiss the sea—
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?” -Percy Bysshe Shelly
