Many Of my friend Said that “Being in loved with your best friend is problematic”, i once agreed to those statement and believed that in love with your best friend is “taboo” if you don’t want to get into trouble. And then one morning i met this Couple, an ordinary cheerful couple who want to make a wedding teaser photos. As usual the first things i do is making a concept and a plan for the photo session based on their “love” story and their interest.
That day we spent time talking bout their love story, how they met and what they like in common. Amazingly they have a lot of things in common as a person or a hobby, from travelling to reading a book, from watching a movie to culinary, from music to shopping. And what interesting is they are a best friend who in loved. They say when they do wath they like, they just like a best friend who having fun and like a couple who loved each other. After that long story day, we decide that ours concept for the photo session is documenting their “have fun” time.
When the photo session come, it’s turns into an amazingly fun session. Even though i just follow them and documenting what they doing that day, their cheerfulness, their care for each other, their happiness for being there as a bestfriend and their loved spread to me just like a summer bloom that warm my heart. The photo session flow from frame to frame documenting what they doing when thir having fun, i just stand near with my camera pushing a “click button” intuitively whenever i felt it was the perfect moment without direction, from shopping time to movie, from riding a bike to playing with kite. Stand in their side that day make me realize that the best relationship is “when you act like lovers and bestfriends at the same time”. They make me realize that love is real and it become stronger and stronger when you as fun and as honest as you with your bestfriend. Love is seeking for happiness together and love are facing sadness together.
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
Just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me
You've got troubles, well I've got 'em too
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
We stick together and we see it through
You've got a friend in me
Some other folks might be
A little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too
Maybe
But none of them will ever love you the way I do
It's me and you
And as the years go by
Boys, our friendship will never die
You're gonna see
It's our destiny
You've got a friend in me
