It was a chilly afternoon in December when I first met Katie on the campus of Louisiana State University. Classes had ended. There was a quietness in the quad. I walked along the treelined pathways to greet Katie and her mom Laurie for our session. Both holding items that were important to Katie for photographs. Both sharing in a love of purple and gold.
I love hearing a person’s connection to LSU. Are they a past graduate? Are they a fan? Did they grow up going to football games as a family? As a fellow alum, I understand how treasured this space is to Louisiana. It has a way of bringing people together from all different backgrounds for one love. The love of purple and gold.
As we began Katie’s session, Laurie recounted her days here on campus. The importance of the buildings. The way the campus had changed and grown. And, Katie followed with sharing her love of growing up in Baton Rouge and why this space meant so much to her. Growing up watching football. Growing up being a fan. Growing up sharing those special game days with her dad.
Katie, your playful and energetic personality shined in front of the camera! You are beautiful and have so much to look forward to as you finish your senior year! Congratulations on your upcoming graduation, and good luck on your next adventure – You are going to do amazing with what life brings your way!
