As a coach of college women, it is funny to see how much “getting the right photo” matters.  We have all seen a group of people taking and retaking the same photo because everyone has to look perfect. But I was a little surprised to find a study from 2015 that says that the average Millennial is estimated to take 27,000 selfies in his or her lifetime. I wonder how many of those are in the “retaking” category?

Our obsession with the perfect image, both physically and socially, have become increasingly dominating with the normalization of social media. But this year I had a pleasant surprise with one of my seniors, Mirea. During photo ops on our team retreat, she pulled out a Polaroid camera.
