they met when they were both living in jacksonville, florida and became engaged shortly before jeremy moved to small town new brunswick, canada [also know as the place where winter never ends] to attend university. after their wedding the following year, jennifer gave up her career and everything wonderful about living in a city with eternal sunshine, to follow jeremy to canada while he continued their studies. after four years, a new baby, a thesis and a whole lot of sacrifices, jeremy graduated from university [with honours] and jennifer was able to breathe a great sigh of relief!
their story is encouraging and even inspiring to anyone who remains on the fence about pursuing passion, love and family, especially when it involves so much sacrifice.
jeremy and jennifer are friends of mine, and as a graduation gift to
both of them, i wanted to give them a portrait session that was focused on them, and would create space for jeremy and jennifer to enjoy one another, remembering how remarkable the other is, and how rewarding their mutual sacrifices have been these past four years of togetherness.
jennifer had told me once that the movie "stranger than fiction" created a defining moment in her and jeremy's relationship. this was because this is the only movie that they watched together and both enjoyed. this is
the only movie that they both like. i can believe this because if you are ever at their home and look in their separate movie drawers you will see two very polar opposite movie collections!! so, of course, it was just perfect to include this movie in this photo shoot that was designed to celebrate their relationship!
love & sunshine,
shannon-may
