Photographing Miryah and Michael felt like a day spent with old friends. Not an ounce of it felt like work as we simply did what they love, explored a new place together, and I was so happy to be invited to come along. I still have a suitcase full of clothes that smell of campfire smoke and I can't yet get myself to unpack them. And instead of telling you what these images mean for me, I will share what was in my inbox after they viewed them:

"You've captured us and our hearts for adventure so perfectly, it's just simply the most beautiful and raw reflection of us. It's almost like looking at your own relationship from an outside view as a witness, and seeing all the love and joy as tangible, captured in beautiful snapshots...everything you already know you felt inside, exposed to the world."
