# 11: A SMILE

The 11th May-Photo-A-Day: "A SMILE"

Today is my favourite day of a month as my favourite number is ELEVEN. You see when I am on the right path I see the number show up everywhere and it's best combination is a 9:11 and an even better: 11:11 on the 11th.

Therefore when Te (who happens to have been born on the 11th of June) and I got engaged, we looked for a Saturday in the year where the 11th would fall on... Today happens to be the first wedding date option but we decided on September as we wanted to save as much as we could for the big day and honeymoon.

Although Te and I did not get married today, we still got to do something out of the ordinary and fun to mark the occasion: for once we were the couple in front of the camera. 

We had the privilege of having the talented and inspiring couple from Lad & Lass, Dylan Harbour and his lovely wife Emma-Jane Harbour from Emmajanenation, capture snaps of us to be used on our film company website, Orpen Film Making Co 

(to be launched soon.) 

As per the previous posting: The 10th May-Photo-A-Day: "STARS", you learnt that I don't really do the whole in front of the camera thing very well and some how always end up with the same "deer caught in the headlight" look. But, today was different I hope... Emma and Dylan made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and never once did it feel silly to be the subject for a change. Te and I wanted to capture who we are as a couple and what we represent as Orpen Film Making Co.:  Cinematic filmmakers in love.

I love how Te knows how to make me laugh without having to try too hard; which made for a natural smile instead of my usual big eyed and toothy grin. Unlike me, Te is such a natural and looked incredible no wonder he has had a few "in front of camera" jobs before. 

I don't have any snaps of us from today so instead I will share one of Te as he is the reason

for the smile on my face everyday - Te says he knew I was the one he wanted to spend the rest of time with from my very first smile, across the deck at George's on 4th. 

That story to come soon.

"A SMILE"

Oh!!! This is why he was such a natural today!!!
