kiss & tell….
“there is no “how we first met” story….i’ve know him my whole life. Â he was literally the boy next door. Â i don’t have a memory of seeing him for the first time…kissing him for the first time…holding his hand for the first time. Â i am so excited to experience all of this on our wedding day……all of our first moments as husband and wife. Â our first kiss…first dance…the first bottle of champagne we crack open…the first “i love you”… Â all the “firsts” that are to commence on our wedding day…i want them engraved in my memory forever….a freeze frame of each precious point in time. Â a collection of “firsts” to compose the story of our lives…”

I can’t help but get reeled into your work…your colors, the connection, and the crispness is amazing!
Would you mind sharing who you use for editing and what you do for your sharpening? My sharpening never looks this clean.
I am a huge fan of yours! Very inspired by you….
