Oh how very true. Old friends are like a cozy pair of sweat pants. So comfortable and familiar. These are the people you confide in when you need someone to listen without judgment, but be put in your place when needed most. The ones you ditched school with together and vacationed Spring Breaks with. The friends that knew you before you were a wife or a mother and before you had to be all adult-like and responsible. Ugh.
This was my first professional shoot where a client asked if I would do a session with four best friends. The minute Phyllis asked I was so excited! We all put pressure on getting that annual "family shot", but what about taking some time to do a shoot with the people you confide in the most?
Phyllis, Ronda, Laurel and Corine have known each other for over 25 years. Watching them interact was such a kick! They were so raw, honest and fun with each other.
We decided to shoot the session at Cabrillo Beach. The sunset was AMAZING that night and we had the whole beach to ourselves.
