Bruce and Bev celebrated 50 years of marriage earlier this year.
50 years.
600 months.
18,263 days.
I wonder how many times they would have shown patience and kindness to each other, how many times they would have forgiven each other, how many times they would have had to pivot, adjust and adapt to something new.
When I asked Bev and Bruce what the secret recipe is, they both laughed and told me to communicate, forgive and to never go to sleep angry at each other, to do the hard things together and to laugh at yourselves every now and then.
Cant we all learn a bit from that, hey?
Something I have found myself photographing more and more is older couples. And I am absolutely enjoying learning more about them. About the things that they have been through, about the ebbs and flows of their relationships, the good, the bad and the best times they've shared, often sharing memories and winding up in laughter together. They are very quickly becoming some of my favourite sessions.
It had been a very long time between professional photos for these two cuties, but boy am I glad I was the chosen one
