kevin and nicole – classic love-letters engagement session

In early January, we were able to meet up with Kevin and Nicole to capture their love story. Upon receiving Nicole’s story, I knew right away that this shoot was going to be classic. Kevin is in the military. Twice in the past two years, he has been away for an extended period of time, reducing their communication to handwritten letters.

This sequence represents Nicole’s daydream (as she writes a letter into the night) that she could spend even part of an afternoon with Kevin. We made use of lots of Fuji 400H and Kodak Tri-X films. The Waldrops, family friends, were kind enough to let us use their farmhouse for the shoot. I cannot thank them enough, as this location was absolutely perfect.

As the evening light dwindles, the hypothetical date winds down over fresh coffee.
