Because our team was bigger this year – this was our one big group shoot on location – and it was absolutely wonderful to get a chance to shoot and explore together!!!

As everyone stood in the group I asked point to the person who is on their phone the MOST!?

What I wasn’t prepared for was when I asked the questions – ‘Who is the hardest to get on the phone or respond to texts?” As fingers point my direction – I both drop my head in shame and started laughing so hard I almost dropped the camera. lol

At the end of the road – be with a friend who has your back.
