The first time someone told me that I should write a book was during my second year of university. We were walking down the street towards campus when my friend {who would later become my boyfriend!} said “Gen…you should really write a book someday! And it should be about love…” I was pretty puzzled at this statement and frankly, considered it to be the worst pick up line I had ever heard! “You think I should write a love story?”, I replied. “No. You need to write a story about love. You just see it everywhere…so you should write about it.”
Obviously, I never ended up writing a book about love. I fell in love. I followed love. I even captured love. But I never wrote a book about it.
I did, however, constantly find myself wondering what that book would look like. If you could put love into words…what would they say? What would the cover look like? How many chapters would there be? It’s been just one of the mental dialogues that has been following me around for close to a decade.
A few weeks ago though, I was able to put a few more of the pieces together. And it came in the form of Heather and Tom…one of the sweetest, happiest, and most in love couples that you’ll ever meet…
Now, truthfully, most couples on their wedding day naturally tend to be sweet, happy and completely in love. It’s sort of a given. But not everyone laughs. A lot. Or cries at the mere sight of each other {aka. the best first look EVER!}. These are the little things that made them so different. So amazing. So perfect for the story.
And as I walked away from their day, I knew that if I ever wrote a book about love…it would be a book about them! Through laughter…through tears…through the pages of a perfect love story…
Gorgeous!
