Loving by Hugh Nini

Loving: A Photographic Story portrays the history of romantic love between men in hundreds of moving and tender photographs taken between the years 1850 and 1950.

"Some images, taken under umbrellas, speak to the secret code used in the mid 1800s up until the late 1920s - posing beneath meant the two men were involved with one another" -- Emma tucker - Creative Review; "There is something that transcends time periods, nationalities and social standing: the look of love. And it was these glances and gazes that led couple Hugh Nini and Neal Treadwell to amass a singular photographic trove of men in love that spans 100 years." -- Dusica Sue Malesevic - Daily Mail; "A new book collects photographs of male romance over the course of a century - with many images taken secretively so the lovers didn't get caught." -- Mee-Lai Stone - The Guardian; “They may seem like simple images now, and nothing out of the ordinary, but in fact they show incredible acts of bravery.” – Faima Bakar, Metro UK; “The captivating gazes and embracing poses reveal a world entirely different from the one we live in today.” -- Liucija Adomaite and Justinas Keturka, Bored Panda; “In a press release to Upworthy, the authors described it as a "visual narrative of astonishing sensitivity"” -- Jisha Joseph, Upworthy; “…a collection of previously unpublished vernacular photography depicting romantic love between men that powerfully and movingly reasserts both that love is love and that we’ve always been here.” -- James Kleinmann, The Queer Review; “Love between men was forbidden, but still some adventurous wanted to perpetuate their relationship: Stunning historical images show the splendor of a man in love.” – Laura Airola, Helsingin Sanomat, Finland;
