Here's more photos of the "couple" photo shoot.  They are just so darned cute!

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

I did a "couple" photo shoot and loved my time with them.  They were easy and relaxed with each other and we had a fun time.

If you press me to say why I loved him, I can say no more than because he was he, and I was I.

Ah! Young love -- so naive, so immature, so unsophisticated, yet ever so charming! Every generation warns the next of the heartaches and the heartbreaks that come with this love. Yet, each generation is eager to experience love. Authors have tried to express the happy occurrence we call young love.  I watched this young couple at the Getty Museum.  You could tell they were just getting to know each other, wanting to touch but not quite having the guts to try.  She, especially, was very flirty in an innocent, cute way.  I had to photograph them.  I've posted the original and then a Photoshopped version.

                  No, there's nothing half so sweet in life as love's young dream

Thomas Moore
