On this Valentine’s Day I am reflecting about falling in love with my husband. Here’s a photo of us when we were dating. This was the last-day-of-school picture at our staff party. My future husband was the editor of our college newspaper, and I was on the staff. Of course, it’s in black and white. The newspaper’s photographer took the photos with his twin-lense reflex camera. Even our wedding pictures from the following year are in black and white because we were working at a newspaper, and a photographer on staff took our wedding photos for free and developed them in the newspaper’s dark room.
Though my husband and I met our first week of college, we didn’t’ start dating until later and then only for nine months before we tied the knot. I’ve only got a few photos of that magical time. No cell phones then, and having to get photos developed and having to have bulbs for indoor flash was a pain.
I hope each of you has a sweetheart with whom to share this most romantic of days.
