I remember the feelings I had walking up to campus my first day at Baptist Bible College in Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania. The feelings were mixed as I felt excited yet a little awkward as a transfer student, entering my Junior year, and not knowing a soul.  Soon, through the crowd of Freshman mixers, I found my way to those in my year, and made some friends. This became even more challenging as I was one of the few students to be living off campus. Most of the students lived in the dorms.  Some of my closest friends were in the same dorm, and the dorm Mom was Sandi. The entire family lived in the dorm, in a separate apartment.  Like me, they were from California, and we instantly clicked, and they adopted me as their dorm daughter.  Their girls were very young at the time, but as you can see in the photos they have grown up to be not only amazing Christian women, but so incredibly beautiful.  I love this family, and I love it even more that they moved back to California and only live about 30 minutes away.  This family is full of life, energy and spunk. Their energy was contagious and I had a great time shooting them.

Sandi and Nick, you’ve still got it!

Meet Nicole (These two are so close. I adore their sisterly bond.)

Meet Ashley

This set makes me smile, the connection the three of them have is awesome.

I shared a story with Nick that my pastor had shared that week, about weeping at a wedding as he thought of his own daughters’ walking down the aisle.  Let’s just say, Nick held his daughters just a little tighter and really got into the shoot once I shared that story.

Hot, hot, hot!

We had a visitor.
