I met Juana when I started working in the Mac Lab at school almost two years ago. There were days when neither of us got anything done because we were too busy talking about everything! Juana is so awesome because she graduated with a degree in Journalism a semester early, and just yesterday graduated from UNT again with a master's degree in Women's Studies, also a semester early.
Although she doesn't brag, Juana really is quite inspirational. She spent some time interning at a non-profit organization that helps women get legal services, particularly in immigration and violence against women cases. I even attended an event in which she spoke in front of students about domestic violence awareness. Almost any day that I'd go into work, she was working on a 20-page paper of some sort or preparing for a test. She is a role model for any young woman who wants to be successful.
On top of her education and career accomplishments, she is also so much fun. She always cracks me up and is such a good friend. I am so happy for her successes and I'm proud to have known a woman that will go so far in life. We decided to celebrate the end of her journey at UNT by shooting her session in Denton, the place that has been her home away from home since 2007. Thank you, Juana, for the laughs, the stories and the fun. I can't wait to see what you have in store for yourself next!
We were in love with this light at the courthouse!
I love, love, love this one!
This was about ten seconds after I jumped four feet to my left when Juana said there was a man behind me! After my dramatic reaction, we squinted to see that it was just a long-haired guy taking a break from skateboarding in the distance. If he were barefoot, we would say that this was an image of typical Denton.
This spot, that we found by accident was my favvvvorite location of them all. Her outfit, the location and the golden sky made this perfection.
We couldn't have made it better if we had planned it on purpose.
Juana, you look beautiful in this one! Your skin is perfect and your makeup was the perfect accent. I am so jealous of your curly locks!
That's right, ladies and gentlemen.
This was an experience to say the least. While trying out off-camera flash was fun and produced some cool results, we definitely had to work together to get the images we wanted. It's something I'm going to be practicing in the near future though!
