Christine--Then and Now

I met Christine Pham about 6 years ago when she was working as a hostess for a local Honolulu restaurant. She agreed to sit for some photos that wound up in a few of my books all those years ago. She moved back to the Mainland and we lost touch...until we found each other again on Myspace about two years ago. We traded the occasional e-mail and casually kept in touch. I received a note from her about a month ago where she said that she would be in Honolulu for a week. I immediate asked her to update her photos and she agreed.

It was great fun to work with her again, but it was even more interesting to how much she had grown in five years. She went from a pretty teenager to a beautiful young lady. We met for dinner and to edit the photos a couple days later. It was really nice to sit and talk with her without the pressures of a photoshoot. We talked about where she'd been, where she was going and generally about life's trials and triumphs. The weekend was a lot of fun and one more reminder of the wonderful people I've met and friendships I've made in this field that I love so much.
