Celebrating someone very special to me.

I am a true believer in mentors, if you don’t have one and are pursing your passion-get one. It will change everything, I promise.

This woman was a mentor to me for a year and helped me plan some of the things that have come to life for me in this present moment.

These photos were taken in 2017 before the world went sideways, I had to convince her to get in front of my lens. Benedicte is beautiful from the inside out, a lot of people say that about a lot of people. This one is the real deal and I want to shout from the rooftops my gratitude for having her in my life. She has just turned 40 and I showed up to surprise her, to celebrate with her and most of all to hug her, because we can.

Bonne Fete Mon Amie, J’adore, J’adore, J’adore.
