GRAND HAVEN, Mich. — Corrin Harrell was watching the fireworks in Grand Haven on July 1 with her family by the Anchor downtown, when she snapped this photo:

Harrell says she doesn't know the couple pictured, but thought the photo of them sitting arm-in-arm was a sweet candid moment worth sharing with them.

"It's like super busy down there," Harrell told FOX 17. "And we live really close. So we didn't have a spot marked out. We just kind of walked around, grabbed a seat, and then the fireworks were starting. And I'm just staring at this couple in front of me. They were so sweet. So I just took a picture of it. And it was beautiful. So then I was like, I have to find them. Because obviously, they would want that, they would want a picture. That's cool."

"There's no filter. No filter on that picture. It was just perfect."

The internet agreed, with the post garnering more than 2,000 likes on the Grand Haven Informed Facebook page.

"I was a little bit hesitant initially to post it because I like didn't want to offend anybody or you know," said Harrell, "I don't know these people. But I'm like, it's just so precious to see that. You know what I mean? So finding them, I just thought it would be really cool. And that they would like to have that."

The search for the couple, however, is ongoing. Harrell says she's hopeful what she calls a #relationshipgoals photo can be given to the people in it, which is why she hopes by sharing this picture with FOX 17, the couple can be found.

"I think a lot of young people were hoping that that was going to be like them, you know, down the road. relationship goals." Harrell continued, "I think it was the hashtag I put with it."

"I was for sure that somebody was gonna say like, Oh, I know, this couple are my parents or something. But nobody seems to know them. So I just thought, why not try to find them if it goes on the news, right?"
