This girlie right here has made such an impact on my life, and I think that’s what makes these images just that much more special to me. She was one of my first friends when I transferred to my new college, and has been a light in my life ever since. I am grateful to have someone who makes me laugh when we are both so stressed out and who sends ugly selfies back and forth with me when we are bored in class. Oh, we send a lot. She is the queen of her own weird language that has caught on with so many people, and she is everyone’s go-to model at my school. Keep scrolling to see why, she’s the cutest.

We had a class assignment to “photograph a subject in good light,” which is usually the extent of instruction we get at school, so we have free rein to interpret that however we wish. Amy is seriously a rockstar at all things nature, and her landscape photography is killer. I’m also crazy plant-obsessed, so the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx seemed like the perfect fit for our shoot. A day was had trying to get to this place, seriously… we are not meant for subways. It took us forever to get there and home, but the pictures were definitely worth it. We had to take pictures of each other, so I actually got to be a “model” (I use that term VERY loosely) for once. I might make a post one day with some of my favorite pictures she took of me, what do you think? Okay, enjoy the abundance of photos of one of the cutest humans on earth, and go check out her photography right here!
