Nicole and I went on a “photo” date a while ago where we drove around the countryside with a tripod and no timeline and took photos.  A few years ago I did a 365 Project where I took a self portrait a day for a year, so taking our own photos would be cake.  We took quite a few photos and I still haven’t edited them all but have been working on them here and there. The ones that I have edited I got printed and they now hang in my office and by my computer at home.

It is crazy to me how the essence of someone can be captured on a piece of paper with ink and how that photo can trigger so many thoughts and emotions.  I love having a photo of her where I can see it to remind me of how beautiful she is and how blessed I am to have snagged such a wonderful girl.  It’s a good reminder to me to smile and to tell her that she is beautiful and loved every day. 

A digital file is nice and a photo on a computer is great, but there is something that changes when it is printed on paper and becomes tangible.  I really need to get more photos printed, and so do you.
