My best friend, Marie, has carried me through the most difficult time in my life these past few months. She’s been my strength, my laughter, and my confidence. I do not know what I would do without her. If only everyone could be so lucky to have a girlfriend like her. Photographing her and her wonderful husband, Steve and their PERFECT dog, Odessa was a privilege. Thank you, Marie. I’ll never be able to relay the extent of my gratitude.
