I swear I just blinkedā¦ and all the kids I used to photograph are out here getting degrees, becoming doctors, and getting ENGAGED š³ā¤ļø
Weekend Recap (My heart is FULL)
This past weekend was one of those āwowā¦ look at this lifeā kind of weekends. Today was my first day back after resting my left ankle, right knee, and lower backā¦ so yeah, your girl needed it š
Friday ā Abbey at Catawba College earning her degree in Nutrition. I met her back in 2018 on the softball field, and now here she is building her future. Her bestie Atta-Girl made it even more special.
Saturday morning ā Sydney at High Point Universityā¦ getting her Doctorate in Pharmacy and still one of the most humble humans I know. So proud of her.
Saturday afternoon ā Anita and crew + Texas Roadhouse (THE ROLLS). Anita has been my āwork sister turned real sisterā since my Food Lion days, and her family will always feel like mine.
Sunday hit different.
Alex at NC State graduating with his Engineering degreeā¦ and THIS one? FULL CIRCLE.
Iāve known the London family for 26 yearsā¦ since I was pregnant with Olivia. From middle school math teacher daysā¦ to Friday night football where I photographed Alex all four yearsā¦ to his senior photosā¦ and now college graduationā¦ AND heās engaged.
Excuse me while I process the fact that I am aging in dog years š« š
To wrap it all upā¦ time with Olivia and Alec ā¤ļø
Crabtree shopping + Morgan Street Food Hallā¦ just soaking it all in.
Pulled in around 12:30amā¦ exhausted and completely grateful.
Huge thank you to Brigette for letting me crash and giving me a home base while I ran all over NC like a woman on a mission (because obviouslyā¦ I was š
).
These arenāt just friendsā¦
These are yearsā¦ decadesā¦ of connection.
From babysitting kids who are now in collegeā¦
to photographing seniors becoming doctorsā¦
to friendships that turned into familyā¦
Itās wild. And itās beautiful.
