Leah has been one of my best friends since elementary school (partially thanks to our mutual love for Taylor Swift) and she's been a big part of my journey with portrait photography. So many shoots that I can pinpoint as crucial to my development as an artist involved her, including the very first senior portrait I ever did back in high school. Now we're graduating college, so of course, I made the drive to Birmingham, Alabama to take her grad photos. We spent the afternoon hitting all of her favorite spots on campus, and even made it over to the botanical gardens for a few more photos. It was right before Christmas, so everything was decorated making for a really magical grad session.
