One of the first dates we went on she texted me the top photo before we met up, to show me her dress. She was stunning in the photo and even more beautiful in person. This was long before I knew how to take photos or even knew I wanted to take photos.

During the date, I wanted to take a photo of her, but I knew my Iphone 1 or 2 at the time would do her no justice. Plus, I did not want to be weird and ask to take her photo.

We had a casual date, just a drink and went walking around the city. I remember having this feeling, I was not really sure what it was. Ironically, we just went on a date last night at the beach. I had the same feeling last night that I did then, I enjoyed being with her, I felt calm, and I wanted to take her photo. I thought back on that feeling and had better understanding now of what it was.

Some time later, several dates later, we had gone for a run, she has always loved running. I went with her and kept up, when we got back to her house we got some water and sat down for a moment. A few minutes later, as if there was no concern in the world she just took off her clothes and said she would take a shower first. Seeing her without clothes was simply put amazing... not necessarily in a sexual way, but just how care free, and accepting she was of her body, her confidence, and of course her amazing physique.

I texted her one time, asking if I could ever take pictures of her. She said "sure, what kind of photos?" I said "all kinds" she replied "naked kinds? lol"

I can't remember if I asked or if she sent it on her own but this would be the second photo I would get. This was before facetime, before IG, snapchat or anything like that. Again, I loved how care free she was and how beautiful she was. I would manage to save these 2 photos over the years, despite losing many other photos, videos and conversations...

And now its the first set of photos in the series I made 2 years ago "Text to Art"

This series takes an artistic approach to our life, conversations and appreciations for one another (her) in a curated fashion.
