A quiet tender moment by a river and canyon cliff wall between the now-married couple in a patch of golden sun. To me seeing nature in such a peaceful location gives photos an ethereal feeling that can't be paralleled. These two had a playful and romantic connection that keeps my addition for telling love stories going strong. In this photo they walked down to the pebbly shore of the river in the Fall while water levels were low. The sun poked through the large cottonwoods to create a heavenly patch of light that screamed for me to direct them into. From there I let the two of them interact naturally and see how they connected without my input.
