Meet Kaylin: A Nurse.

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

 

“You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.” – Zig Ziglar

Meet Kaylin.

Kaylin would like not to be identified.  Her father might go insane hearing she picked up a hitchhiker.  Her story is too good though.

Kaylin is nervous to pick me up.  “You are not going to kill me are you?”  She eventually relaxes a little.  She once felt so bad as she passed a hitchhiker, that when she pulled around at the next exit to go back for him, that she got into an accident.

Kaylin is a nursing student at a nearby university in Louisiana.  She wants to be an operating nurse.  Her mother was killed 2 years ago, in a mishap while in the hospital.  Kaylin wants to make sure this doesn’t happen to someone else.

Meet Marcella, Jan, Justin, Niall, and Aaron.

Here is another video preview from a shoot I did on Bourbon Street on April 10.  Marcella, Jan, Justin, Niall, and Aaron all joined me on the street and helped me recruit folks to take photographs with.  

They really got the crowd rocking and we were definitely a spectacle as we walked down Bourbon Street and took photographs with folks from all over.

Thanks again!
