Allie + Lauren : Vanderbilt Campus Family Session in Nashville, Tennessee

I’ve known Allie Gay(tor) since I was 6 years old and in the first grade. With her blonde curls, amazing singing voice, and perfect southern accent, we grew up polar opposites of each other, but somehow our friendship just worked.

One of the highlights of my high school years was watching my best friend take the stage and completely losing it in the audience when senior year, she finally scored the lead as Polly in Crazy for You. It’s no surprise that today she’s a musical theater teacher; I can’t think of a more fitting career for my sweet friend!

While Nate and I lived in Nashville, Allie contacted us for photos of her and the fuzzy little man in her life- Her Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Riley. Oh, and her sister Lauren came along, too. :)

Riley for the win!

I think the last time I saw Lauren she was in middle school and Allie was locking her out of her bedroom. I love how close these two beautiful ladies have become!
