Sasha Khomenko: beautiful photos of couples in love
In the works of wedding photographer Sasha Khomenko, you will not find traditional and already boring pictures of newlyweds embracing on a bench. All the photographs of the young Ukrainian photographer depict not even the people themselves, but the magical connection that exists between them. Love, so different and always the same, passionate, tender, hot, bright, sad and inspiring - this is the main subject for shooting. Alexander's photos of couples in love simply exude this versatile feeling.
Couple by the sea
Sasha prefers shooting outdoors to studio photography, his models walk in winter and autumn parks, plunge into the waves of the raging sea in a passionate kiss and even sit on the side of the road. The photographer tries to bring a story to each shot or make the viewer come up with his own. Why do young people kiss at the edge of a dark forest? What brought them there, romance or the need to hide their relationship? What happened to this couple? How long have they not seen each other? These accurately convey the joy of meeting young people, their emotions overwhelm them and it seems that the whole world revolves around them.
In addition to all the same traditional situations, the author loves to take beautiful photographs of couples in love, immersing his models in a non-standard setting. Climbing into the middle of the winter river in wedding dresses or dancing a waltz on the sand is not a problem for them. However, wherever the couples in love are, they are always happy and joyful. Probably, this is the true feeling when you feel good next to your loved one in the middle of the night forest, and on the edge of the abyss, and in the icy desert, and even on the side of the road.

Photoshoot Love Story- this is, literally, a Love Story. It is chosen by couples in love to give each other a gift or just have a good time with a photographer.
In photographs of couples in love, the main thing is to show the connection, interaction and feelings of two people. Usually these are passionate and deep feelings that make pictures of couples romantic, filled with tenderness and love, or positive and cheerful.
Traditionally photo shoot Love Story perceived as preparatory photography before the wedding. Such a pre-wedding photography is the best opportunity to rehearse the most romantic options before the main celebration. A couple in love can fill their lives with new unusual colors and sensations, making any photo-fantasies a reality.
