We met at Chocollage Bakery in Norfolk, VA this afternoon, and the made-fresh-daily desserts did NOT disappoint. This cute 14-year-old little bakery on College Place, is a gem. It’s owned by Pat and her daughter Lee Anne and they bake everything themselves. We enjoyed quite a feast: Hello Dollies, Rocky Road Bars, Cheesecake Brownies, Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars (my favorites–I mean what better combination is there?), an assortment of cookies, chocolate covered strawberries, and more.
Despite the drizzle, we had our first model team photo session outside of the bakery. These girls are gorgeous. They are fun, smart, kind, and real. I am so excited to get to spend time with them this year. I love how at ease they were with each other. I love that they are up for anything and that they instantly became friends.
Here are the girls outside the bakery with Pat, one of the owners. She was fantastic. SO kind and thoughtful, and did I mention that she bakes everything fresh every day?
Melanie Wasko Photography 4 Season Senior Model Team 2018. So thankful for them!
