Love That Lasts
The celebration of couples that make it, and why.
In a time where 50% of marriages fail in the United States, I yearn to celebrate the ones that succeed! My plan is to create a photo-study called "Love That Lasts" In which 100 couples are photographed and interviewed about their marriage, their struggle, and their love. In a sense, it will be photographing America's 100 happiest couples and what makes the still tick. Cute photos of old couples kissing? Ring a bell? That's because everyone loves them! The book will consist of several sections.
10 Years Together
20 Years Together
30 Years Together
40 Years Together
50 Years Together
60 Years Together
70 Years Together
Newlyweds
The similarities and contrasts I will find and display in this study, I hope will increase our own understanding and success of marriage.
Questions asked of couples will be why they got married, what their greatest struggle has been, what advice they would offer to other couples, what they would have done differently...etc
This photo study will not exclude any race, religion, or sexuality.
TO LOVE!!!!!!! AND LOVE LASTING!!!!!!

Nice job. You've got my vote!
Good ideas like yours that are not in the Top 100 are nearly impossible to find. This is unfair as many great ideas are hidden. Those of us in the “Sub-100” should work together to promote the best projects of the Sub-100 so that they can be in the Top 100 and be seen. Please vote for best Sub-100s!
Very cute project, voted.
