he's in the army, and they've essentially been doing their relationship long distance for years. they've been together for 7 total, and they've only been in the same city for a teensy bit of that. they're blocked by the barrier of skype, both a blessing and a curse. because you can't hug over skype. you can't kiss over skype. jen said the thing she misses most is just doing the daily things of life together. like grocery shopping. she said it, not me. promise. (my kind of girl.)
this session was refreshing for me.
all about the people, in a real way, in a way that wasn't covered with fluff or pretension or fake. no trying just being.
hope you enjoy :)

(02.02.11 @ 05:41 AM)I LOVE grocery shopping...and I love the photo of them hugging.
(02.02.11 @ 08:38 AM)isn't that what seeing is all about? capturing the uncontrived (is that a word?). I love that you caught them as they would be on any other day. Thank God for the gift you gave them. :)
