Circa 1910 American couple. RPPC. Private Collection.
This picture reminds me of the famous painting done twenty years later in 1930. This beautiful couple is on farm ground with a wagon and horse peeking to the left and another wagon, barn and house to the right (I see the barn being red). The man is dressed in a light colored Norfolk suit, and his wife is in a simple white cotton or linen dress with the large buttons going down the skirt. She’s wearing square buckle shoes and he the ever-fashionable Victorian boots with the side buttons.
A beautiful picture of a couple living in the American countryside.

Circa 1890s-1900. 1/6th plate. Private Collection.
These romantic four got their picture taken on rocks in the outdoors. There’s such a positive, happy vibe to them. Though they are in nature it looks like they may have been at a city park, or at least near civilisation. They’re dressed city-like with bowties for the gents and white dresses for the ladies. My guess is they attended a happy semi-formal occasion and a photographer was hired to take pictures of the attendees.
I like seeing pictures of gents with their hat tilted far back. The one with the bowler looks like he’s cracking up about something. I love it when everyone smiles on tintypes. The ladies are gorgeous too. The guys are probably feeling lucky!

Posted 1908. RPPC. Private Collection.
“And I shall follow this commandment to the letter!”
This is such a sweet real photo postcard of a would-be couple embracing across a fence they wish weren’t between them.
And this is an Edwardian mass produced one where the gentleman isn’t wearing high contrast eye makeup and rouge on the lips.
Photographer: The Rotograph Company. New York.

I imagine these lovebirds were on vacation by the seaside on a summer day, and took a souvenir picture of them together at the local photographer.

Private Collection.
These two are enjoying an outing on a hot day, posing in front of what looks like a Ford car. Keith is wearing white knickerbocker trousers with a matching short sleeved shirt he rolled up further, and Elsie a very pretty flapper style long sleeved dress.
