Life is funny in many ways. It can bring people into our circle by chance that otherwise we wouldn't find.

I found Priscilla, Gia's mom, that way. We were each bridesmaids in a wedding for our best friend, Maria, along with Maria's sister and friend Ashleigh. We hadn't known much about each other except that Maria was important to us, but we quickly became friends over that short amount of time together too.

Priscilla asked me to take Gia's photos to use on her quinceaera invites, and really, I was so flattered. Quinceaeras are a big deal, and so I wanted this whole session to be perfect. Lucky for me, Gia is easy-going and gorgeous. Priscilla left us to it while we were at Ted Ensley Gardens. I think she expected Gia to be nervous, but the nerves played to her advantage.

I also loved that Priscilla didn't *really* have any clue what the photos might look like, so the surprise of revealing them was extra fun.

I am so happy that they both loved them. And I hope you do too.
