We love this kind of tradition!
Best friends Orion and William have been taking the same photo together on Martha’s Vineyard every summer for 12 years, creating a beautiful timeline of friendship, Black boyhood, and summer memories.
According to a post shared by Missjulee, the two have been locked in since they were both less than 2 months old. Every year, their families return to their happy place on the island and make sure the boys take their annual photo.

From 1-year-olds to teens, the photos show more than how much they have grown. They show the beauty of friendship, family, tradition, and the kind of village that keeps memories alive year after year.
Their Martha’s Vineyard photo has become a sweet reminder of how special it is to grow up with your people by your side.
Kudos to the parents for keeping this beautiful tradition going!
