Ya'll had to know I couldn't do just a boring land-based grad photo for my own graduation!! ;) I have to toot my own horn here... This Bachelor's degree has been 11 years in the making. I graduated high school Class of '07, did 2 years of college, joined the Navy, served for 6.5 years active duty, sometimes taking classes and working at the same time. Since I've been off active duty I've been a full time student and running my #underwaterphotopgraphy business simultaneously. I'm officially graduating Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology, emphasis on Pre-Physical Therapy this Friday! To say this path has been difficult is an understatement. But looking back, I wouldn't change a damn thing. #feelingproud #lifealivephotography ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #classof2018 #collegegraduate #sdsualumni @tuesdaystogethersd @best.of.sandiego @sandiego.city @theresandiego @photogrababe @mood_of_the_day_365 @assortedportrait @land.vs.sea @outdoorsocal @outdoormagazine #sd_creators #posepatch #creative_portraits #featuredphotographs #sandiegogram #nbc7sandiego #allthingssd #supportsdlocal #wheresandiego #sandiego_ca #sandiegolife #sandiegophotographer #underwaterportrait #aquaticadigital #underwaterphotographer #underwaterlicious #underwatermagazine #underwaterwednesday #underwaterartist #underwaterdream #underwaterphoto #underwaterphotooftheday #underwaterportraiture #reallifemermaid (at San Diego State University)
