Anyone who follows this blog will recognize Becky. She began shooting with us this year and it is a true pleasure to work with her. What you may not know is that I have known Becky since high school. We both were dark room rats in those good old film days and had many conversations over red light and developer fumes.
My favorite Becky story from back then is from when I was having a really hard time (it was high school all). After giving me some advice on life she asks if I want to “hug it out”. We hug and she instantly tells me that I give awful hugs. She proceeds to bear hug the crap out of me, lifting me off of the ground. I have never given a limp hug since that day! I tell this story because it sums up so much of Becky’s personality: thoughtful, wise, caring, strong, funny and honest to a fault.
Being Becky and Larry’s choice to document their wedding day was an honor. Larry makes Becky laugh almost effortlessly. It made my job so easy when all Becky had to do was look at Larry and she would glow with joy. Seeing an old friend so happy was a wonderful bonus to my workday.
