BRAINSTORM

• 1 is less experienced than the other?

Man and Woman: Romantic

Two Men: Friendship

Two Women: Friendship

• Hard working city jobs both use photography as an escape.
• Magic hour a mutual time shared for bonding whether it be romanic or Friendly?
• Shy introverted both of them despite spending in the company of each other nothing more than a glance at first.
• This has indadvertedly turned into a Romantic meeting so scrap the friends thing, Man and Woman it is.

• Tension obviously visible between 2.

MORE BRAINSTORM

• Girl very spontaneous so changes hobbies very often???
• He finally plucks up the courage one evening, but she never comes back after that???
• Puts posters up to try and find her whom he only knows as 'Chloe'??? 

On second thought I don't think he should find out her name.

Supernatural route:

• Meets somebody who claims to know Chloe, but she informs him that she died 3 years ago???
• Or some sort of variation on this a reason she doesn't return at least for the moment???
• There is no record of her in any of the photos he was taking that had her in one corner???
• Or he was convinced he saw her in previous photos???

- Magic, Golden or Blue hour?

- or "Belt of Venus" which could be seen as a title with more romantic feel?

Twin Theory:

• She disappears so he looks into it.
• Woman has twin
• Twist that makes him believe she died as he sees a picture of the woman he has been seeing on the pier.
• Turns out she is in mourning for her sister.
• She does eventually return, but when he sees a figure that looks very similar to her he believes it to be a ghost haunting him.
