erin, christal, denise, edith, marlis and trudy {friends}


A few months back, my Auntie Erin propositioned me about a session for her and her girlfriends. This was not just your average friend session, however. These girls began their friendship 37 years ago (a couple even further back) in high school. Jump ahead almost four decades, many weddings, bridesmaids dresses,17 children, and countless emails between them...and you find them here...at Harrison Hot Springs for a weekend getaway. They are now spread out across the country, but their ties are tight. The weekend was planned in honor of several 50th birthdays this year; and even in the short time I spent with these gals, they were planning the celebrations of years to come.
I had asked Erin to bring along some photos of her girlfriends from the early days of their friendship and I was not disappointed. The reminiscing made for some fun photos and it also inspired a re-creation attempt you will see at the bottom of the post.
Ladies, it was great to spend a bit of time with you and witness, what is obviously, a deep and true friendship. Who knows....maybe I'll see you all again in 10 years at the big 6-0!
