Half way through Desiree & Steve’s engagement session, Steve mentioned about finding an old engagement photo of his parents where they were randomly arm wrestling. I hadn’t seen the photo, but thought it would be fun to imitate his parent’s photo. Here is my modern take on them arm wrestling:
After the shoot, I was dying to see the original photo! I loved that I had not seen the original image because the temptation to exact replicate it would be too great. I wanted to shoot it my way and capture their uniqueness first (and not have them just copy his parents). I was so excited when Desiree sent me a scan this week. Here is Steve’s parents a few decades ago:
We also did this similar thing with Judy & Rex, so I’ll get a copy of their version of new | old when they get back from their honeymoon! Any of you have new | old to share? I’d love to see any of your renditions/plans/inspiration!
