The Lovers. Photographer Dane Peterson captured Faith Picozzi & Filip Milenkovic exclusive for C-Heads and we have asked the two lovebirds about romance and about not losing your own space in a relationship.
Filip and Faith, what attracted you firstly to each other?
Faith: His personality and smile :)
Filip: Her attitude, vibe and of course that red hair ;)
And what made you fall more in love in the long-term?
Faith: His genuine loving energy towards everything.
Filip: Getting to know who she truly is underneath the surface, what she stands for in life and what she’s passionate about.
What does romance mean to you?
Faith: Loving someone so much that you can’t imagine life without them. The effortless way you connect and grow together.
Filip: Having a deep emotion/understanding of the person you are with, being able to love one another and grow together as two individuals.
Are we meant to be with a certain person or do we choose someone when we are ready for love and make it work out?
Faith: I think we are meant to be with a certain person, when I met Filip I knew he was the perfect match for me. We clicked right away :)
Filip and I are able to be honest with each other and talk about everything. Of course every relationship does take a little work and patience though.
Filip: I think that once you find the person you are supposed to be with everything flows, there shouldn’t really be any drama, once you know you know. Obviously everyone has their ups and downs in life but if you are connected with each other, you work through it :)
Most odd “The Morning After” experience in both of your lives?
Faith: To be honest I don’t have one.
Filip: The oddest “morning after” would probably be the time I woke up in a bathtub full of pillows, it was actually pretty comfortable though hehe.
How do you manage not to lose your own space and personality when you spend lots of time together working on things?
Together: We create time in our schedule that allows us to have our own space, we feel that alone time is important for the mind and soul.
Faith: I love to go to dance class a few times a week. I’m always working on something creative…. Studying acting, photo shoots, cooking, and then most of my castings and jobs are time for myself.
Filip: I go play soccer a couple nights a week just to stay active. I also love to keep my creative side flowing by reading scripts/books, play guitar and brainstorm photo ideas.
Together: We also have nights that we hang with our friends separately or together…. Boy nights, girl nights, couple nights, and just normal social nights out :) We think that balance is important for our relationship.
Your aims and dreams for the next years – professionally speaking and in your private life?
We both want to continue our creative side by doing more shoots together and put out a book. Dive more into acting, individually and together as a couple! We actually just finished a short-film that we are the leads in. Lots of traveling. We both love experiencing new cultures, cities and environments.
