This is Ethan. He is an adorable young man, very centered in who he is, and yes, girls right now is taken. 🙂
He is the son of some very dear friends of ours, Brad and Debbie Slawter. Brad and Debbie were with Chris and me on our very first official date. They were already engaged to be married at the time, and were gracious enough to spend time with the “new couple”. Chris and Brad have actually been friends for much longer than that, and I will never forget the smile on his face that night, as if he knew Chris and I would go on to be together forever. Their family is special to ours, and our kids have grown up great friends, even though they have not lived in close proximity to one another for very long at all. My girls adore their eldest, Aubrey, and Ethan and Johnny have so much in common. I think if they lived here, they would be inseparable, both loving guitar, good music, and the same sense of humor and spirit of adventure.
Anyway, they came through town several weeks ago and asked me to shoot Ethan’s senior photos. I was honored to do so. It was about 99 degrees that day. I thought we would melt in the afternoon sun, but we did great. Ethan kept us laughing and with Johnny behind the soft box, we had it coming from all directions. It was a good day. Plus, look at this kid! What a joy to be around.
We love you Slawter family! Happy senior year! It goes by so fast.
