The Saturday following our wedding anniversary, we had a photo shoot with a young photographer from our church, Megan, in the morning at the National Arboretum (a place we love and go to often). Despite us starting the shoot at 9:00 am, it was already very hot and Daniel wasn't that cooperative, but Megan still did a great job! The aim was to mainly get photos of us as couple but we also took some with Daniel, and of him alone. Nena watched Daniel for us while we had our photos taken. It was a wonderful morning! Megan made us feel very comfortable and we felt like newly weds again, very in love, and thankful for our marriage. Here are some of the highlights, the photos are wonderful and will be treasured forever:
I also made a video of our favorite photos with the song "Dreams" by Gabrielle, the song that was "ours" when we were together in Singapore as teenagers and the one we danced to at our wedding. We still love the beat - enjoy! (Tip: Click on arrows (second icon from the right of the video screen toolbar) to see the photos on full screen.)

On the same Saturday evening, we were supposed to go out to dinner to a special restaurant and we even had our friends Laura and Ken come over to babysit Daniel. But Jonny ended up having a really bad migraine that evening and so we decided to just stay home. As Jonny started to feel better, it turned out to be a wonderful evening spent with our friends, so for us, in addition to my speech to Jonny on the actual day of our anniversary, we feel like we had a wonderful time celebrating our 10 years of marriage!

ReplyDeleteI love the photos, and that was a really nice idea to have a photographer take them. They are all so good I don't know which ones to choose. It is good to have some in black and white too, I like the effect. I am so happy for both of you that you have a joyful marriage.
ReplyDeleteMuch love
My dearest Aninha-Jonny
ReplyDeleteI am speechless looking - over and over again – at this video which makes me feel like living in a true paradise, where a dream is tangible and the reality is that everything is blue, beautiful, loving, caring, complementary, brings happiness, and perfection for ever and ever!

How wonderful and transparent love you two transfer to each other and transfer to us in life and in this video again and again! How beautiful faces you both have! How marvelous couple you are and…to add value to this video, to this “piece of art”, Megan could not find anybody better than our little prince, our sweet boy wonder who brings so much joy and passion to our lives! Daniel is gorgeous in the pictures! And we all know that he is a very happy boy! He is the result of your deep love and strong relationship. Daniel is the best proof of your exemplary life as mamae and papai! Praise God for it!
