A small backstory, this was a forbidden type of love. We wanted to be together, but there were obstacles keeping us from doing so. We went through ups & downs of passion & pain. But after a few months, the separation became unbearable for us and we decided we were no longer going to let these obstacles hold us back. These photos were taken shortly after that decision. We felt free. We felt that we could finally be ourselves together & be so captivated in our relationship now that nothing was holding us back. I fell in love with her the night these photos were taken, & even though we aren’t together now, we had a beautiful relationship. This shows how much love I saw & felt from her.
