我拍下了老年夫妇的照片，我所见证的那种纯洁而诚实的爱是令人难以置信的

I started off as a family and child photographer five years ago, but what I noticed was that people only came to get photographs taken with their children and spouses. I never had a client asking me to take photographs of their parents or grandparents or even photos of their children and parents.

五年前，我开始从事家庭和儿童摄影的工作，但我注意到人们只来这里和他们的孩子和配偶合影。我从来没有客户让我给他们的父母或祖父母拍照，甚至给他们的孩子和父母拍照。

So I decided to divide my work time into two parts. I spent one half of my month photographing my clients the way they wanted me to and the other half was dedicated to requesting grandparents and great-grandparents (who I would invite via model calls or would randomly approach in public places) to come and be photographed by me with their grandkids.

所以我决定把我的工作时间分成两部分。我花半个月根据客户的要求拍摄他们，另一半时间致力于请求祖父母和曾祖父母(我将通过模型调用或随机方法在公共场所邀请)来与他们的孙子辈拍照。

On one such shoot in Houston, Texas, this year, I noticed that while I was photographing one grandparent with their grandchild, the other grandparent was just standing silently in a corner. So, for the sake of their memories together, I asked both grandparents if I could photograph them together... and I haven't stopped doing that now.

今年，在德克萨斯州休斯顿的一次这样的拍摄中，我注意到，当我在拍摄一位祖父母和他们的孙子时，另一位祖父母只是静静地站在一个角落里。所以，为了他们在一起的回忆，我问他们的祖父母我是否可以一起拍照……我现在还没有停止这样做。

Whichever country I visit, I make sure I photograph elderly couples there together and I cannot express how fulfilling this has been for me. The stories I hear of their lives together... and the pure and honest love that I witness in the course of these shoots is just beyond amazing.

无论我去哪个国家，我都会确保拍下老夫妻在一起的照片，我无法表达这对我来说有多满足。我听到他们共同生活的故事……在拍摄过程中，我所见证的那种纯洁而又诚实的爱，实在是太不可思议了。

One of the elderlies said to me, "When we were young, we had so much around us to distract us. Our love always seemed to be so rushed... so incomplete. But now that we have only each other, this love, this companionship is all that matters."

其中一位老人对我说:“当我们年轻的时候，周围有太多的事情让我们分心。我们的爱总是那么匆忙……所以不完整。但现在我们只有彼此，这种爱，这种陪伴才是最重要的。”
