Hello
Mr. & Mrs. Cochrane,
So,
I gave my boyfriend the pictures! Finally! I had so many
butterflies in my stomach that I really thought I was going to decide
otherwise. Well, needless to say, his initial reaction was one of
immense shock. It really took him a whole day to express his emotions
and thoughts about the whole thing. But I have to tell you that he
absolutely loves them now. He even keeps one of them with him in his car!
He really felt bad that part of the reason why I wanted to do these pictures was
so that I may feel beautiful about myself. He felt guilty that he
never brought that feeling to me - which was true for the first 6 months of
our relationship. Now he complements me everyday and ensures that I
feel as beautiful about my exterior as I do of my interior self.
It may seem to others that pictures depict a person's superficial attributes
but honestly I saw more than that while looking at them. I did give
them all to him which I believe will change. Someone told me that I
should keep some to myself so that I may remind myself of how really
beautiful I can be! I hope other women and men for that matter see
their true beauty when they look in the mirror. Self perception can be
a killer in disguise. Thank you for making me feel so special and so
proud of my decision to take these pictures. To some it may not appear
to be a big deal but I really feel that I have benefited
tremendously from this unforgettable experience. It would not have
been possible without the incredible energy and passion that you both
possess. I can definitely see why your destiny was to be together.
You both make a great team!
Thank
you once again from the bottom of my heart!!
Love
Olga
