Who Inspires You

A series of professionally-shot wedding photos of my parents. One is of my mother, one is of my father, and one is of the two of them smiling at each other. In all images my parents are in formal wedding-wear.
When asked to take a photo of the people that inspire me, my mind immediately shot to my parents. Initially, I wanted to find photos of them with me as a baby, but I found these on my hunt through old photos. I chose these because they show what I admire in my parents: First, they are both incredible people (I thought the professional photos and formal attire would present a feeling of awe on the viewer’s part.)—smart, kind, and exactly the type of parents one wants. Secondly, they are both beautiful people—but even more beautiful together. I can only hope to have as a great a companionship with someone as my parents do with each other.
