Day light nearly gone, don't worry Derek is here. Get his lighting gear to make you stand out when the light is nearly gone. Just a hug in the garden, soft green light all around. My couple sessions are built from simple moves like this — hold each other, have a blether, laugh at my patter — because simple is what real affection actually looks like. No dipping, no staring meaningfully into the middle distance. The gardens at Mabie House wrap a couple in green from every angle, which gives these frames their soft, glowing backgrounds. Ten minutes, a handful of gentle prompts, and a set of portraits that feel like you on your happiest day. That's the whole recipe. It doesn't need more.
