Have you ever had a friend from childhood that moved away, but then ten years later you reunite? It’s one of those situations that could go either of two ways – really, really awkward, or really, really good (almost as if you saw them the day before).
This reunion was definitely the latter.
Katelyn and I were the best of friends when we were preteens. We both attended the same church where her father was pastoring. With two other girls, we were our own little group of pals. It was when we were thirteen that her family moved churches and we quickly lost touch. Thankfully with technology being as great as it is, we were able to reconnect over social media. Not only that, but her cousins, Phil and Simone Mittelstaedt, are my pastor and friends. (Small world, innit?) Thus, leading us to this shoot. It’s pretty neat when things come to a full circle!
It was a very rainy day – typical of Vancouver. Bundled in jackets and scarves, with umbrellas in our hands, we made our way to Stanley Park. Even though by the end of it our fingers were numb and our faces painted a rosy red, it was a fun filled shoot!
Enjoy!
