Endings and starts. Life is full of them and they are all special in their own rights. For some of you reading this - you won’t believe me when I tell you how short your youth is. The time in your life before you are no longer a baby bird with one foot out of the nest is fleeting and so special. There is such an incredible value in documenting the time before adulthood comes at you full-steam ahead and I encourage everyone to do so.

Milena is as smart as she is kind and beautiful which is to say a lot. Getting to take these photos of her on the George Mason campus was such an honor and a delight.
