It is with great pride, excitement, and maybe a few happy tears that I present to you the graduating Photo + Video class of 2025! They say good things come in small packages — and this group proved it tenfold. Small in number but huge in talent, this crew has done it all: surf photography, fashion, products, rodeos, couples, concerts... if it could be photographed, they captured it beautifully (and probably made it look cooler than it actually was). Through deadlines, critiques, creative blocks, and the occasional technical meltdown, they stuck it out — and they came through stronger, more skilled, and more passionate than ever. We’re so proud of everything they’ve accomplished, and we cannot wait to see where their creativity, grit, and vision take them next. Congrats, Class of 2025 — you’re an inspiration! ❤️ (and yes, that's me, The Grip Reaper, always watching you put your sandbags on the big leg and weight over the right side of the knuckle!) . . . #calpoly #graduation #calpolyslo #youngphotogarpher #slo #sanluisobispo
