I first met Kendal when she was three or four years old, tagging along to my first-grade classroom when her family dropped off her big sister. She was a firecracker even then—busy, curious and full of personality. All these years later, I got to photograph her as an Angleton High School senior, and I couldn't wait to see who that little girl had become. Turns out, the firecracker is still very much there. From country settings and her truck to welding gear and dreams of becoming an offshore welder, Kendal's senior pictures were built around exactly who she is.
