Images of Aging Photographers Tell the Stories behind their Photos – Samantha McIntyre

Now it is time for our Images of Aging contest winners to tell “the rest of the story” about their photograph! Over the last few days our student photographers gave their extended caption for the photos they submitted to our contest!

Here is the extended caption from Samantha McIntyre’s photo, “Living That Beach Life“

“After an early morning of smoothie bowls and walking around Encinitas, California, Beverly and Bob McIntyre, aka Mimi and Papa, took the grandchildren out for a swim at the beach to enjoy a little sun. This is one of the rare moments of Papa sitting down because he’s always in the water and catching the every wave, despite his struggle with diabetes. Mimi, on the other hand, loves relaxing and learning about the newest design trends that she can use in her side job as an interior designer. When she’s not hanging out with her family or designing, she is traveling the world as a missionary or working at her local church as a women’s pastor. They have been married for 54 years and still manage to make each other smile everyday.”

Samantha’s photo earned Honorable Mention in the Color category.  Continued congratulations, Samantha!
