Shutter Bug

The pictures that I have been posting lately, of Christa, were taken about eighteen years ago just after I met her. The pictures of her in a red sweater, some of which are already posted, are very special to me because that is the very sweater she was wearing when we met the first time. I took most of these photos because at the time she was an aspiring modal and wanted me to help her build a portfolio. I haven’t looked at most of these pictures in at least ten years, now I can’t see them enough.

She actually enjoyed both sides of the camera. If memory serves me well, I think she was a school photographer at B.H.S. She studied photography at the University of Nevada Reno and took hundreds of photos of the children which I need to download from her camera.

She told me once that she fell in love with me on our first date. I don’t know if it was love at first sight, but I feel I can make a very strong case for love at second sight. And really, a love that is still going after eighteen year, whether first or second sight, is still better than many can attest to.

Good Love, Good Memories, and Good Cheers,
Marty
