The Golden Days

This post comes from our Northwest Social Media Specialist & Senior Visual Manager, Nikki!

“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.” — Albert Camus

I left in the morning. Took the first ferry out of the city with the rising sun as my only compass. My mom used to say my hair is golden because I am the sun’s child. Winter has been long and I can feel spring calling. I’m not one of those people that has within them the invincible summer that Camus wrote about. I can’t generate my own sunlight, but I can reflect it. So I head east to meet with the sun at the horizon. I go alone and for one golden day I am at home. I am radiant.

This photo shoot is so beautiful! The outfit and colors are just so gorgeous. My abuelita used to tell me the same thing about my golden hair. She would always say I was kissed by the sun. I’m so excited for the warm weather to return!
