One way mirror questions

Brandon

How did you fall in love?

For me it was every car ride I would bring her home. I would drive off after such a simple two hours or so spent together and think to myself that I will marry her one day. Over time, my person became my best friend. I was never in love with the thought of her, because she was everything right in front of me.

What is your favorite memory with Mimi?

Driving into and out of Ensenada, Mexico with my garbage can of a car. I remember thinking to myself that this adventure or, at times, this traumatic experience easily became my favorite memory with Mimi because it showed me there's no one I would rather try new things with.

What’s one quality you admire the most about your partner?

I call Mimi my little stormtrooper. She doesn't show what she's going through and she just gets up and does her job. She carries herself with strength, faith and mercy. She shows up for you when you need her without telling her. She can lead by example and always deserves the best, regardless of circumstances.

What’s one thing Mimi has taught you that has made a positive impact on your life?

I've learned how to let my pride go and allow myself to feel empathy. It's something that I have struggled with due to the way I grew up. Growing with Mimi has taught me that I don't need to be someone else around her. I don't need to prove things to her because I am already her person.

If you and Mimi had the opportunity to see a visual representation of your soul connection, what do you think it would look like, and how would it reflect the journey you’ve shared?

I try to imagine this intricate garden of golden lilies where roots run deep. Mimi and I's relationship is like a tapestry woven from threads of trust and time, each strand representing shared experiences and mutual support. Just as the lilies’ roots intertwine to form a strong foundation, so too does our bond, growing stronger with every challenge faced and every joy shared.

If Mimi was a color, what color would she be?

Green because of boogers. HAHA, no. She reminds me of that one color that doesn't exist. Think of this spectrum of colors and any combination can be mixed together to create something on a literal level. Mimi is this unique, never thought of color that shapeshifts. I couldn't even tell you what color it is because we coexist in this universe where our relationship creates something beautiful and nonbinary. She's my color.

How did you fall in love?

Is it too cliche to say that I fell in love when I first saw him? idk but that was the FIRST time I fell in love with him. The truth is i’ve been falling in love with Brandon every day from the moment I saw him at the bonfire of our high school choir retreat. I fell in love with him again when we shared our first kiss, when we visited Mexico together for the first time after I graduated high school, and all the moments we’ve shared since then. I fell in love with the way he made me feel instantly and every time I think I can’t love him any more because my heart already is full and fully known. I wake up the next day with even more love.

What’s your favorite memory with Brandon?

Hmmmm. Hard question because I have a gazillion????? Some of my favorite memories include saying I love you to each other for the first time, going to JAPAN (that was literally a dream), dancing to pink sweats in his kitchen on a random Sunday morning, and doing an elopement shoot in Catalina Island (that whole shoot just felt like a pinch me moment).

What’s one quality you admire the most about your partner?

Literally what is with these questions like I have to pick just one??? okay IF I HAD TO PICK ONE.. I would say I admire his ability to bring positivity into every situation. I don’t know how he does it, but even if we are in an uncomfortable situation, scary situation, sad situation, he will always make me a priority and turn the situation around for us as best as he can and bring positivity and a smile to my face.

What’s one thing Brandon has taught you that has made a positive impact on your life?

Brandon has taught me lots of things AGAIN this is so hard to just choose but one thing that has really made a difference in my mental heath and overall perception of myself is how he loves me. He’s taught me that I am deserving of love. Which was something I had always struggled believing growing up. I thought I was unlovable, and he has shown me unconditional love.

If you and Brandon had the opportunity to see a visual representation of your soul connection, what do you think it would look like, and how would it reflect the journey you’ve shared?

I think it would look like two galaxy’s fusing together. A beautiful array of colors and stars clashing together and then coming together. One galaxy with deep purple and blues meeting the other galaxy with light pink and orange. They come together to create a new galaxy that’s new, unique, beautiful, and something that just feels right. Like they’ve always belonged together, like seeing them apart would just look wrong.

If Brandon was a color, what color would he be?

ORANGE!!! Because he’s like the sun. Warm, kind, soft, safe, and the brightest one in the room always. Like the sun because he brings life to those that need to blossom. Because he has made me blossom.
