Love in Mountains
Project Title
Mark & Ruth – Where the Seasons Meet - from series “Love in the Wild”
This portrait is not just of two people, but of a feeling — the kind that lingers long after summer fades. In the photo session Mark & Ruth – Where the Seasons Meet, Jonathan Schulman captures a tender love story set in the fading days of summer, as the first whispers of autumn drift into the mountain air. The couple stands beneath a large tree, its leaves nearly gone, and near sparse bushes stripped bare — a landscape in transition, mirroring the cycles of love, time, and change.

The Lens
Embraced in a quiet moment, Mark gently touches Ruth’s hair, their eyes locked in a gaze that speaks volumes of shared history and present joy. They are seen laughing, holding, and finally gazing together toward the horizon — a gesture of hope, intimacy, and a shared future. The cool light and natural tones surrounding them create a sense of calm and closeness, a natural frame for this moment of affection.

Jonathan's lens doesn’t dramatize — it observes. Through his eyes, the landscape becomes a metaphor for the couple’s connection: a space of emotional fertility, where even as nature prepares for dormancy, something deeply alive continues to grow. Their presence in this raw, seasonal wilderness feels both playful and grounding — a reminder that love, like nature, is rooted in rhythm, cycles, and moments of warmth even amid the chill.
