Tell Me a Story Circle-August

Earlier this month I joined a group that each month to tell a story. I think it will make more sense to you readers once you read the blog and see how it works. At the end of the post you will see a link to another blog where I encourage you to visit others' pages and see the story they have to tell this month.

The middle of this month I was itching to take some photos and I am lucky enough to have a best friend who wanted her picture taken. The best thing about my best friend Nicole, is that she is twin. Well of course I love Nicole for many other reasons, but as her photographer, I loved the fact that she was a twin. Once I learned that Nicole's twin Taylor was going to be coming along on the photo shoot, I instantly knew these photos were going to turn out great. I was excited to capture the both of them together before they left for school again.

We started our journey at the local library where we took the story book trail back to this beautiful bridge that stands over a creek. The path was busy with people on it, but we managed to get some photos between the crowds. I envy the relationship that Nicole and Taylor have. You are both so strong and confident that you radiate it to who ever you are around. Truly a joy to be around.

Being your friend, it was hard to direct you at first and tell you how to stand where to look, felt unnatural to make you two do anything but what was normal. You guys had this great energy around you that let us be silly and get the photos we wanted.

The afternoon contented with you two being the loving sisters you are. Seeing you two bonding and spending time together before you headed your separate ways for school was really neat and made it easy to capture you two. At times it made me want to remind you two that when you're fighting to look back at these photos and remember how well you two get along and how the bond between you two isn't forced ever.

The quote: "There is no better friend than a sister" couldn't be more of a true quote for the two of you. We've all met those siblings that are simply that, siblings. That's the difference between you two, you aren't just siblings, you are best friends and that shows wether you mean it to or not. 

I enjoyed every moment of this shoot you two, you made it easy to get the shots I wanted. I enjoyed taking you two individually as well. You both have such different personalities that capturing you two apart really brings it out. Nicole, when I started shooting just you, you were a natural and looking poised and making sure the photos were good. Honestly the best model ever. Taylor, your laid back personality really shows. Instead of just sitting on the bench, you brought your legs up and made it comfortable. It was easy to get the shots and required almost no work on my end. 

Remember no matter how far you two may take yourselves with school and after graduation, you are always sisters and that bond will never go away. I don't see you two ever being far from each other and always maintaing the relationship you have. Remember to enjoy each other and remind yourselves that no matter what, your sister is always there for you. 

Thanks again guys, it was honestly so much fun to capture you both and capture the love. Enjoy for years to come.
