Today is Valentines Day, let’s celebrate love!

Love is in bloom more than usual today.

For the entire month of February we’re dedicating this blog to celebrating couples in love. And today is the reason why.  So put your red roses in a vase,  indulge in a little dark chocolate and watch a Hallmark movie with your lover. It’s Valentines Day! To help set the mood check out some great images of love and romance with some of our wedding couples. We mentioned in an earlier post how we encourage engagement sessions. They are a great way for us and the clients to connect and get to know each other before the wedding day. This ensures a working familiarity between us. They learn to trust us so they can relax and be themselves in front of the camera. This trust is established during the engagement session and for some brides the boudoir session. 

It’s easy to snuggle close to stay warm on a cold and damp November day at the Buffalo Outer Harbor. I get the feeling Jayne and Joe would be hugging just as close on a hot and humid day as well. You can feel the sincerity of their love for each other.

You can’t pose these shots. They just happen naturally.

No picture exemplifies enjoying each other in the moment more than this next one. I love the spontaneity. One can really feel the love and joy. It is a true moment of bliss between Lindsay and Alex. This shot was captured in Lafayette square in Buffalo.

Sometimes a simple gesture like a kiss on the forehead speaks volumes. Riverworks was the setting for this warm and fuzzy shot of Julie and Matt. 

Casual and carefree describes the love shared between Erika and Scott in this shot. The Autumnal scene here was shot in beautiful Chestnut Ridge Park. 

This is Kelli and Joshua getting up close and personal at their engagement shoot at the Buffalo Historical Society. do you think they’re happy in love?  You can’t fake this! 

A Valentines day blog would not be complete without a couple steamy wedding day images. Here is Adriana and Thomas at Buffalo City Hall.  There’s something sexy about that last moment of anticipation before a kiss.

There’s plenty of passion being shared between Kristina and Darren on their wedding day. The art of love on display at the Albright Knox art gallery in Buffalo.

Finishing up, here is Shannon and Kevin enjoying an intimate, lighthearted moment on their special day. From us at FCI Photography have a happy and love filled Valentines Day!
