Late last year a high school teacher reached out to me and asked if I would be interested in a teenage intern who wanted to pursue a career in photography.
Anyone who has ever seen my Netflix queue can tell that I love all manner of media geared towards teenagers and young peeps in general.
In January, Intern Bridget entered my life!
Bridget goes to an amazing school in the Midwestern that values teaching students actual skills and work ethic.
She lived with her extended family here in Austin and worked for me during the week.
We had a blast culling weddings together, discussing which of Rory’s boyfriends from Gilmore Girls was the best, and going out shooting images!
Bridget is the kind of teenager that gives teenagers a good name.
Driven, funny, warm, completely unspoiled and unentitled.
As an example, her car broke down while she was here and she took the bus to my house.
Doesn’t sound like a big deal initially, but that commute is over an hour and a half due to crappy bus transit here!
Sadly her parents wanted her back so I couldn’t adopt her.
On our last day together, I photographed her in a mish-mash of Forever 21 clothes dancing around Austin.
It was the windiest day of the year but I love the images we captured!
Bridget is a dancer and totally held out from sharing her rad dance moves until our last day!
Thank you for everything Bridget, please come back soon! xo
At certain angles I think Bridget looks like a less grouchy Kristen Stewart!
