Janea & Olivia had some reservations before their session.
Both wanted to be seen and represented in a way that showed off their genuine love for each other. They wanted a session that felt fun and easy. One expressed being a little nervous before we started shooting.
As we started to get to know each other, I noticed how much comfort they gave to each other. It's like they melted into the session and by the time we hit the beach they were cuddling like they do at home.
You can their love by how they look in each other's eyes. You can see it when Olivia plays with Janea's hair. You can see it in their embraces.
By the end of the shoot both with laughing and wishing we had more time. Janea reached out after and expressed how cared for they felt.
Shot in Cedar Rapids, IA
