Hannah & Austin... LOVE LOVE LOVE

Where do I start, these two…. Just gahhhhhhhhh-lly.

I met this dear girl a couple of years ago, and felt connected to her immediately… She is beautiful inside and out, compassionate for animals and the environment, and has eyes wide open to let life just flood in… She is a breath of fresh air… I also crossed paths with her darling man at an Elementary school function, where he was volunteering by making terrible balloon animals for the kids with his Navy Dive crew! He made my daughter a snake, and she carried it around all afternoon ;)After meeting them I asked if they would be willing to help me with a portfolio shoot, I hadnt shot a couple in a while and wanted some emotive photos to show the direction I want to go moving forward… They did NOT disappoint.

The elements were completely against us on the day of their photos… A typhoon was in the forecast and all of Kyushu island was shutting down, um, I was the last to know apparently! But this young couple was down for it anyway! We drove out to Oseto Beach, only to find it was closed for the upcoming storm, then while venturing around the area we found this tiny beach… Which ended up being a perfect location….

Austin is completely comfortable in the water, and Hannah in front of a camera… He couldnt stop kissing her and telling her sweet little dirty things in her ears, and show-casing this girl who he loves whole-heartedly…. It was magic to almost stand back and just watch this unfold. He told me during our session that he cant wait to have 10 babies with her, and Im happy to announce they are welcoming #1 very soon!! Gettin it done Sir! Im so so so excited for them…..

The love between these two is raw, honest, real… they have a true connection of friendship, and they reminded me so much of Dear Husband and myself… When souls find each other in this way, its just so natural…

Thank you again Hannah and Austin, y’all are rockstars and Im so happy I was able to capture the pure adoration you share… xoxo
