Sometimes you meet a couple whose love for each other is palpable.
And you think....
"New love is SO thrilling!"
And then you find out they've been married for 18 years. EIGHTEEN!
And still so clearly, so visibly in love.
That, friends, is true love. Pretty cool, huh?
I met Melinda and Todd on a sunny Saturday morning near the abandoned Navy base in Alameda.
The distressed buildings and old airplane hangars made the coolest backdrop. This location is near the now defunct Alameda Naval Station where they film many of the Mythbusters stunts. (Perhaps I'll leave out the part where were got chased off by a rent-a-cop. Apparently, Mythbusters doing crazy stunts with fire and rockets and cannons is JUST FINE, but Photographers and people in love are VERY SCARY). But, I digress.
How about I let YOU decide?
I adore capturing those most tender moments as if I wasn't even there. It makes my heart sing.
And finally...my favorite images from this session.
They almost need doors that big in their house to let their love through.
“As soon as I saw you, I knew a grand adventure was about to happen.”
Thanks for sharing your morning with me, Todd & Mel! I know your home is so filled with love and so ready for your next adventure.
I would love to capture YOUR family's love and laughter.
