She and I first met while living abroad in Italy and have become lifelong friends. We had the pleasure of reuniting during a visit to Hawaii. While catching up via texting, I had mentioned my passion for photography and portfolio expansion and offered her a session. Although she’s never been behind the camera, she said YES without hesitation. We decided to spend the day catching up while having fun with a combo session consisting of graffiti and beach, her two favorite things.
