Meilani and Jett

So I haven’t written a blog in awhile and I felt like I had to write about this last photo shoot that I did. I must say that it was probably one of the most fun shoots I have done with a couple. They were so willing to do pretty much anything I asked, from silly string to sword fighting even to the more serious photos. I think it really shows in the pictures though.

Now from what I know Meilani and Jett have only been together for a couple of months but to me you would never know that because they literally are so cute/good together. I met Meilani first, only about two weeks ago, but for some strange reason, and I don’t know why, we kinda instantly connected. Although if you ask her, she probably still doesn’t like me (inside joke lol). She is very easy to talk to and get to know. So when I mentioned I needed models for a homework assignment, she was more than willing to offer herself and her boyfriend up as models. Now meeting Jett was a little different because he was a little more quiet at first but then he warmed after a couple pictures.

Back to these two…a couple that you would never know has only been together for a couple of months. Maybe it is because I have been around a lot of couples but I believe it is in the ways you act when you think no one is looking that really says a lot. With these two you can see how much they care pretty much every second you turn around. In the way they would look at each other, the way they would always hold hands or try and tackle each other, or in the way they would steal a kiss even when they thought the camera wasn’t on them :) Laughing is also a big part of any relationship and there was no shortage of smiles and laughter from them. Jett knew what to say or what face to give to make Meilani bust out into the biggest laugh I have ever seen! Getting them to be “serious” was the trickiest part of this shoot, which can be good because taking things too seriously can be tiring.

All in all they are the cutest couple and it was an absolute honor and a blast to be a part of their photo shoot. I hope these photos show just a little glimpse of the amazing 2 hours that we all spent together, cuz they flew by!

Pick her up and pretend you’re going to throw her in the pool. She’ll scream and fight you, but secretly, she’ll love it. Hold her hand while you talk. Hold her hand when you drive. Just hold her hand. Tell her she looks pretty. Look her in the eyes when you talk to her. Protect her. Tell her stupid jokes. Tickle her, even when she says stop. When she starts swearing at you, tell her you love her. Let her fall asleep in your arms. Get her mad, then kiss her. Tease her and let her tease you back. Kiss her on the cheek. Kiss her on the forehead. Just kiss her. Let her wear your clothes. Go slow. Don’t push anything. When you fall in love with her, tell her.
