Pam and Dani [Friends on a Rainy Day]

Meet Pam and Dani. I worked with these two ladies for a couple of years and they balance each other out perfectly. Even their scarves complement each other!


Pam is a missionary to India, a lover of bright colors, and a smiler. Always and forever.


In fact, I asked the two of them to mean-mug for a shot. Here's what happened:


See that lip quivering? Yeah that's what most of us would call a sad face. Today we learned that Pam doesn't do mad. She does happy and sad. 
Poor Pam.


 Then, there's Danielle.


Smiling may not be as natural for her [which is crazy because she obviously has a beautiful one], but don't let her deceive you into thinking she is heartless. You can tell that Dani's got a big heart from her willingness to go out of her way for her friends or from her recent adoption of her little one. One of the things I love about her is that she is a doer. Recently, she set her mind to running a 5k. She motivated Pam to do it with her and they got it done. Who says smiling is mandatory anyway?

These two were so much fun to photograph. 





There were random conversations, funny faces, and there may or may not have been some skipping. Pam even scoped out a sketchy building that made this shot possible:


That one was definitely my favorite shot. So after doing my first best friends shoot, I definitely think this is something that everyone should do. Just because.
