Model Search

It happened, life got away from us once again. Those of you who have been following our Inspiration Session project have probably noticed our lack of activity in that department lately. The fall was, as always, an extremely busy time, but we are getting back on track and are re-dedicating ourselves to the professional and personal growth that this project brings... but maybe at a slightly more realistic pace. 

During this time of thanksgiving and family, we want to celebrate the lasting, mature love and beauty that comes with age.  Our culture puts an amazing amount of emphasis on being young and most people only get professional photographs taken when they are young – engagements, marriage, new babies, growing children. 

At Wink, we are passionate about documenting families and relationships, but we rarely see an older couple coming into our studio to document their life and love.  We want to use this Inspiration Session to capture what, we hope, everyone would like to have in their own life: a solid, lasting, affectionate relationship.  There is so much experience, knowledge, wisdom and love held behind those eyes and those smiles and we can't wait to photograph it!

For this Inspiration Session, we would like to honor one special couple for their commitment to each other and say “Thanks” for being a stunning example of love and marriage.  Who will the lucky couple be? This is where you come in.... we would like YOU, our followers, families, and friends to send us nominations for the Wink Timeless Couple. It could be your parents, grandparents, friends, or just a lovely couple down the street. 

Our couple should be a minimum of 60 years old and be comfortable being affectionate (holding hands, talking, laughing, kissing, etc.) in public and in front of our camera. .  We would like to have a couple who hasn’t been photographed in a while, preferably a couple who has been married at least 25 years (this session would be perfect for a couple who is celebrating a big anniversary!). 

If you know a couple that you would like to nominate, send us an email at info@winkphotomn.com with your nomination, a short paragraph explaining why they should be our Timeless Couple, a recent photo of them, and their contact information (used only for scheduling purposes). We will choose a couple based on information from the nominations and announce the winner on Monday, December 3rd. Nominees should be within a 30 mile radius of the Twin Cities at the time of the scheduled session.  Session is complementary (a print credit will be included).

We look forward to hearing from you!
