Anyways, last year he asked me to book a photo session for January 17 to surprise his wife for their anniversary. Such a nice thing to do, right? He changed the session to a December holiday surprise instead. She came to the Cape Fear Botanical Garden, surprised. I am so glad that he was able to do this session, because when I first stepped in their home, I did not notice a family photo with all of them together.
What I didn't know, is that would be the last time I saw him. He died 4 days ago after going into cardiac arrest after a jump injury about a week and a half ago. What luck to have rescheduled that session earlier, and such a tragedy to make that situation lucky. It just shows how important it is to have at least that one family picture together--because in the end, you won't know how long you'll be around.
He was just so influential to many people. Although I brought him along with me to learn from what I do, I have learned so much more from him."
These photos and the memories will keep Alton in everyone's heart forever. Thank you Angelita for sharing these images and his story. I know the family is still probably grieving but I would like to dedicate this to him and their family. I too lost my father suddenly back in 2007, my father was only 56 years old and I miss him dearly. Please send your prayers to them!! <3
