Task

Capture the character of the relationship and build a coherent visual story in which the couple recognises themselves. The shoot needs to preserve natural interaction, cover varied compositions and establish the privacy boundaries in advance.

Hypothesis & strategy

Short actions, a comfortable route and clear prompts reveal a couple better than rigid posing. References set the mood, while the participants' own story, habits and reactions provide the substance of the images.

WHAT WE DID

Implementation step by step

01Learn the couple's story and agree on the mood, privacy and desired images
02Choose the route, clothing and timing around the light and the participants' comfort
03Build the scenario from short actions, movement and natural interaction
04Alternate wide views, portraits together and separately, and meaningful details
05Select a coherent series and prepare versions for the private archive, web and print
