It was effortless. She was a natural. She was confident in her own skin, while still being a little shy to be in front of the camera. She made my job easy, while also making my job hard (because I could NOT narrow the images down). L just graduated college and I realized this may be one of my favorite times to capture. The confidence. The excitement. Not knowing what the near future holds, but being the optimistic dreamer of what lies ahead. I remember the first few days of my very first post-college job and how excited I was (actually…I think I kept saying over and over again that I was “so excited”). Little did I know that just 5 years later I would be doing something that I didn’t even go to college for and that I would love more than I could ever love any other job. Crazy where life takes us, but it’s so important it takes us where it does. I wouldn’t be the person I am if it weren’t for those jobs I had between college and photography.
I cannot wait to see where it takes L. It may not be the direction she imagined it going. It may be exactly the way she imagined it. Either way, it will be the perfect journey for her…
