I was inspired by a video I saw last year of people meeting and kissing for the first time. Complete strangers brought together with the idea of capturing their first kiss on video. I liked the concept and thought about doing a project where I would capture on film, lovers engaged in a passionate kiss.
Inspired by a photo my partner and I had shot years back, I wanted to take the idea of that picture, the raw emotion of the kiss and embrace, and capture other Lovers intimate moment similar to ours. Our photographer Andy Woodford, captured the moment perfectly for us. Now I want to do the same for others.
The intent of the project is to show emotion, pure and simple. Nothing has more emotion than 2 lovers in a passionate embrace and kiss. That electric moment when all else fades around you both, and it's just the two of you, in that moment, where nothing can come between you. I want to capture that moment in time and share it not only with the couple, but with the world. I would like to possibly take this to a gallery showing, E-Book, and possibly publishing down the road.
I'm looking for a cross section of couples from all corners. I want to show the similarity of a passionate kiss from a diverse group of couples. If you would like to participate, please contact me to arrange a date/time for a shoot. For your help with this project, I will provide each couple a fully edited digital picture of their kiss. Which btw, looks great on canvas, hanging on a wall!
Look forward to hearing from some of you and if you would like to follow the progress of the project, find us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/loverskissphotoproject
