Couple Celebrating 68 Years of Marriage Pose for Adorable Photo Shoot
If the Bachelorette isn’t inspiring you to get out there and find your soulmate, hopefully Ollie and Donald King will restore your faith in true love. The sweethearts have been married for almost 68 years and counting and they’re still as into each other as the day they met.
To celebrate the pair’s upcoming anniversary, their granddaughter arranged a romantic photoshoot with photographer Paige Franklin and the resulting images are beyond adorable. So adorable, in fact, that Paige wanted to share the pictures with the world.
Taking to the Love What Matters Facebook page, the photographer posted some of the touching shots and expressed how thrilled she was to capture the couple and their devotion to one another.

“There have been times in my career that I sat back after a session and thought ‘WOW, I really love my job.’ Tonight was one of those nights,” she wrote. “This evening I got to meet two of the most kind-hearted souls, Ollie and Donald. They have been married 68 years this September. They have lived on this farm for over 30 years where they farm cattle and raise corn, soybeans, and tobacco.”

Donald has served as a pastor for 47 years while Ollie has been working as a quilter for more than three decades. She even quilted the piece featured in the series of photos. “They have three children, and they are as alive and happy now as I’m sure they’ve ever been. I hope and pray that my marriage lasts through time like theirs has,” Franklin added.
She also noted that she asked Donald the one thing he was most proud of his wife for. “He looked at me for a minute and looked at her, and he said ‘There really isn’t just one thing. She’s just amazing all around.’”
