POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
one year ago, we opened the show that changed my life. 
not a day goes by where I don’t miss it. 
what a time. what a ride. what a group. what a cowboy.

I’ve been wanting to make this post for weeks but for some reason I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Maybe because I couldn’t get photos of everyone I wanted to include and it couldn’t be “perfect”, maybe because it makes everything feel so very final and real. It’s hard to be in the moment and be a photographer; plus my eyes were puffy and had tears in them most of the night and I couldn’t even tell that my pics were blurry. My sister’s celebration of life was an amazing event, over 400 people travelled to Vegas, from all over the world. Unfortunately I had gotten the flu the week before and had lost my voice so the major bummer was that I couldn’t really hug and talk with everyone like I had wanted. There were family members that I didn’t even see in the sea of attendants. Funerals, memorials, celebrations of life, these type of rituals or ceremonies really do bring a sense of closure. There’s just something about people gathering, crying, speaking, dancing, singing, laughing and eating together in honor of the deceased that brings a sense of completion that I feel is so needed. Having many family and friends there to celebrate my sister’s life was so powerful and moving, I doubt I’ll ever experience anything quite like it again. I would also like to thank the amazing team of family and friends that really made this production work so smoothly. All the performances and speeches were so heartfelt and touching, I can’t even express how grateful I am that my sister is so loved by so many people. I miss you so much sister @cocolasvegas and I love you on this Galentine’s Day and forever. 🙏🏼❤️‍🩹💌
