I have been wanting to do a grunge graffiti skateboard senior portrait session for as long as I can remember. Through the years I had imagined doing it in NODA, a trendy neighborhood in Uptown Charlotte where there was plenty of colorful murals or at the skate park in Waxhaw. Recently, the hubs took me […]
