iheartfaces {Sun Flare}

UPDATE:  My entry placed 9th out of 800 entries by one of my favorite international wedding photographer, Jessica Claire!
There's a first for everything. And this happens to be my first entry in the I Heart Faces photo challenge. This week's challenge, Sun Flare!

I have always been a hopeless romantic, and as a teen, have often romanticized about love and being swept off my feet. This dreamy image of my daughter, takes me back to those years, and my fantasies.

I'm alone in the midst of the sun's haze, wrapped in it, soaking in it's warmth. As I look up into the glistening fields, I'm mesmerized by the glowing wildflowers swaying to the breeze. Dancing as if they too, were moved by the waves. With the breeze blowing gently against my cheek, combing it's way through my hair, I'm waiting.  There, I could wait forever.
