My parents will be celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary this summer. They don't look old enough for that, do they? They met in junior high and were high school sweethearts. Having two kiddos, multiple career changes, several moves, travels, loss of loved ones, gaining grandchildren... just brings them closer. They are loved and respected by everyone around them and it just means the world to me that they have always been there for me and my girls.
These photos were taken on a trip last summer to Door County, WI. I really wanted to take some portraits of just the two of them, as I'm usually sticking a grand kid on their lap!! I have new love in -my- life (which I will share soon!) and hope to be where they are some day. I love images of love that has stood the test of time. We always document new love.. engagements, new babies, weddings.. but we don't often take the time to photograph the long lasting loves and they are pretty rare these days!!
Love you Mom and Dad. :)
