There’s something so special about capturing graduation photos, and Julia’s cap and gown session at the Ohio State University was no exception. As she prepares to walk across the stage this December, there so many memories still to be made. It was a joy to photograph her and her roommates in the place they’ve called home throughout their college journey. The excitement, pride, and anticipation for what comes next is making this season feel like a celebration of both accomplishment and the new adventures to come.

But what made this session even more heartwarming was Julia’s younger sister, Sydney, being there to help out. Sydney, currently in her own senior year of high school, is searching for the perfect college. Walking around campus with them and watching as Julia showed her sister around was so cool to be a part of. I’m so grateful I get to watch them experience their senior years together. It’s such a sweet reminder of the beautiful, overlapping chapters in life.

Julia,

Your excitement for the future is infectious, and it’s clear that you’re ready to take on whatever comes next. But in this moment, I hope you can soak up every last bit of your time at OSU. It was a privilege to be there to capture these memories. Congratulations, Julia!
