From Third Grade to Forever: A Love Story Rooted in Time

Some love stories don’t begin with a swipe or a chance encounter. Some begin in classrooms lined with crayons and storybooks—when love is just a whisper, a quiet promise not yet spoken aloud.

She knew. Even back then, something in her heart told her he was meant to be part of her world. He didn’t see it right away—not until middle school, when he started to notice how her presence made the world feel a little lighter, a little more like home.

From those early days of childhood friendship to high school memories, growing pains, and growing up—their connection remained. Steady. True. A love not rushed, but deeply rooted.

Now, all these years later, they're standing at the edge of forever—ready to say I do, not just to the future they’re building, but to the history they’ve already written together.

Photographing these two was like stepping into a love poem—effortless, real, and full of meaning. It’s couples like this who remind me why I do what I do: to preserve the beauty of connection, the tenderness of memory, and the magic of a love that was always meant to be.
