    Beautiful, love the coffee mug that was also captured in the photo

  • Taylor Sawyer replied

    Someone told me to remove that. I kinda thought about it then thought no, because it was part of the moment. I may do it for artistic reasons, but for the couple, I’m keeping it in. It was a cold morning and they were both drinking mugs of coffee to keep warm and then snuggled like this at the end of the dock for me. It just works!

    I love that you kept this one in color

    :)

  • Taylor Sawyer replied

    Thanks Micki! I actually did a yellow midtone to give it more of a romantic/warm feeling. I thought it looked to flat in just two tone! I’m glad you agreed with my choice!!

    lovely. love the silhouette of the coffee mug, it’s more significant and less staged. perfect job.

  • Taylor Sawyer replied

    Aw, I’m glad you said that! Again, someone told me to crop that out and I didnt want to. It was important to the shot because it was in the moment! I’m really enjoying hearing everyone tell me they like it there! Vindicates my choice! ;-)
