The kids are up in Michigan visiting their god mother for a week. My husband and I were trying to do something different each night that we normally wouldn't do. So I figured why not do a portrait of ourselves. We hadn't done one since we were married 20 years ago. Sure we had people take snapshots of us off and on but not an official looking one. So I am always wanting to practice taking portraits and my husband was very accomdating. So here goes. Hopefully all will love it as much as we do. I am really happy how this came out. I plan on having this printed on canvas. To tired to add the steps and to be honest probably wouldn't remember them all.

Love the tones and POV in this portrait! Beautiful editing that looks natural and real. This double portrait portrays, IMHO, a genuine and enduring love connection between two people.
