We all love a good love story; I know I do. But fair warning, I won’t be going down in the history books as a one of the great writers of our time (my high school English teachers are sipping their tea in disappointment).

I always had my head in the clouds as a kid, dreaming of the perfect love story and falling in love myself. I never let on how much I enjoyed watching love stories, but secretly enjoyed watching Love Actually, Notting Hill and even Gilmore Girls with my mum as a teenager. I’m very thankful to have found my own love story with my wife Mel (she’s a hottie and I’m punching above my weight). I have found it incredibly rewarding to continue to witness so many others’ love stories with my camera but more than that I’ve felt those stories in my heart.

These beautiful people let me in to their worlds for a day and I’m so thankful. Below you’ll find some of those stories.
