Issue 69: Graduation

Another Trip Around the Sun

A birthday photo diary.

Lauren Tepfer 05/11/2017
  • These photos are from my birthday weekend, which I got to spend with all of my friends from out of town. We had a great time exploring Philadelphia, trying different vegan restaurants, and Goodwill hunting. Brooke and I share the same birthday, and this year we were able to celebrate together!

    This is a photo of Grace, Elaine, Moira, and Brooke in my hometown.

  • Brooke in an in-between moment.

  • Claire.

  • My backyard and my neighbor’s house.

  • Self-portrait as a newly 18 year old.

  • The moon from the first night we were all together.

  • South Philadelphia.

  • Brooke is 20!

  • Philadelphia.
