Geometric Neutrals



Dear Christine,

On Friday night my friends and I went to Lucky Strike for an early birthday celebration.

Nnenna and I were together during daylight for the first time in so long and we chose the church courtyard for photos again. Lala met us later and has been camera shy lately, but I’m determined to get her in photos soon. I’m such a creepy photo stalker. …
