Josie: a Blaine High Junior
Josie got the short end of the stick. Halfway through a week of shoots at Gown and Glove with no rain at all (nearly miraculous for a Bellingham winter), we were just about ready to call it another successful rain-free day and then – kersplat – the first of the raindrops started falling. Josie is amazing, though, and a few drops of rain didn’t even begin to phase her.
In my few minutes with Josie, I think this unwavering steadfastness is what I most want to be sure to learn from her. Besides being incredibly beautiful, she has a gentle optimism that will be a delightful asset through all of life.
She has the cherished ability to laugh in the storm, dance in the rain, and be beautiful despite it all.
In a collaboration with Gown & Glove Bridal Consignment and Love Beauty Bellingham, I hung out with and photographed fabulously beautiful Whatcom County high schoolers. This story is part of a series.
