My love,

I can’t tell you how much I love to capture you. From photos that are purposeful and posed, to those that are candid and just for my eyes.

It’s been incredible to watch you come into even more of yourself than you already were long before I came along. It’s been an honest to goodness honor.

As you continue your journey of Sy, I thought it would be wonderful to have you properly captured in the space that you love, in the city you adore, in the style that you have mastered.

Capturing you, Sy, as you are now, in your 31st year of your life.

So, I’ve been in talks with a photographer who I have always loved how he’s managed to really capture a few folks that I know. When I look at his images, I truly feel like I can see exactly who that person is at that moment in their life.

His name is Julian, and he’s a photographer here in Chicago who specializes in film but also is a lover of digital.

So, I worked with him to put together a shoot for you. Film, Polaroids, and Digital are all included as well as multiple wardrobe changes and 2 locations—Our home (the place you’ve come to love so much) and any other location of your choosing.

It’s yours whenever you want to schedule it.

You’ve talked about having photos of yourself, not just being captured in a way by me, but photos of yourself that you love to look at and perhaps even hang in your home.

I love you, and I hope that whenever you decide to have the shoot you look at the photos with joy.

He’s a very kind, chill, patient photographer who enjoys capturing folks the way they feel and want to be seen. I put together a mood board for him when we first started working on this (It’s below) to give him a vibe of what I think you’d envision BUT that was only to give him an idea. When you’re ready his e-mail is here and you can pop him over one to chat through what you’d like and how you’d like to be captured.

I love you and I hope you enjoy this gift darling.

I love you,

Bellz <3
