Second Valentine’s Day analysis!
So, this is one of my favorite photos, and the first time I saw it, I thought it was a manip, but then I saw their arms and freaked out even more.
I think the most notable thing about this photo is Cami. Without Cami, one could say it was posed and they were asked to stand like that (not sure why that would be, but, stranger things have happened, I guess). But, since Cami is there, it’s clear they were basically caught in a moment.
Cami’s hand is covering CS’ face as if she had to face him towards the camera. And she’s really smug about it. CS looks amused, but only because her finger is raising his eyebrow.
Now, KJ, his cheeks are flushed and almost as pink as his lips, which are way pinker than usual. Actually, CS and KJ’s lips are both almost as pink as Cami’s, so they were clearly doing something before this photo was taken.
Finally, their arms. They aren’t just resting their hands there, they are holding each other, pretty tightly. CS’ hand is grabbing KJ’s waist, and KJ is doing the same to CS.
Plus, KJ has his hand flat on CS’ stomach, which, you almost can’t see cause CS’ arm is blocking it.
It doesn’t matter how you look at it, there is nothing joking or friendly about how they are positioned. There is no laughter, just two neutral faced boys holding each other like they are the most important people in the world.
It’s so romantic, bottom line.
Hope you enjoy reading this short analysis as much as I did writing it.
