This couple honestly rocked me... for so many more reasons that what I can mention here but here is a list that explains why I am that much greater a person having met them:
They've got Soul- as defined by Webster, "a deep feeling or emotion," they have this amazing depth to them that is like magic.
They've got Passion- there is a certain kind of intensity about these two that I totally resonate with. Everything they do is with passion, enthusiasm and with intention. I absolutely dig that.
They've got a humble confidence- you know those kind of people who lead with love? That is these two. They have these humble hearts aimed at putting others first, coupled with a total confidence in who they are. What a beautiful thing it is to see that lived out.
They've got the gift of encouragement- After I met these two for the first time I left feeling on top of the world, feeling un-stoppable. Mostly because they are some of the most encouraging people you could be around. I also get these lovely little encouragement quotes in my inbox from Leda that always seem to come at just the right time, this last one I received said, "What we vividly imagine, ardently desire, enthusiastically act upon, must inevitably come to pass."
Jonathan practices chivalry- this is something that I am a total sucker for. Jonathan opens the door for Leda, walks on the side closest to the curb and the list goes on. chivalry is NOT dead! ;)
So I could go on forever about these two but this quote by Mother Theresa seems to sum them up beautifully, "in this life we cannot do great things. Only small things with great love." - Mother Theresa.

I think this is my favorite session to date (I've been following your blog for a while now--love your work!). These two are such a beautiful couple! And I'm sooo obsessed with Leda's leggings! I want to know where she got them! :D

This is one of my favorite shoots. They're both so originally beautiful. I love her freckles, a lot of girls are embarrassed when they have freckles, I hope that's not the case with her, they're so wonderful. I love your pictures, I can't say that enough! I can't figure out how you get yours to be so clear.
