Chicago… Wicker Park: Javier & Maggie
Usually I walk past most couples on the street. It’s rare when both people catch my eye, as did Javier & Maggie. It’s too awkward to shoot couples individually and then post only one of the shots, so these days I’ll only shoot them together if I like both the outfits.
This photograph was taken right before the snow fell Saturday afternoon. I liked that neither of them were wearing puffy coats. Despite falling temperatures, it’s still possible to look stylish as both prove above. Plus, I loved the obvious infatuation they have with each other that came through in this unplanned moment in between poses. I thought it was a lovely image and captures them so well, much better than the posed shots. If only all of us were this much in love…
I completely freaked out looking at this couple. They are ADORABLE! And as a redhead from the Chicago area who’s obsessed with Spanish anything, I now aspire to be Maggie… I guess I could start with the shoes. <3
