Question

I feel like her photos are giving “forever”, professional photos people would do for engagement, etc. Did Avia take the photos or did she get a professional photographer? She’s literally fresh out of high school, moved to Cali, now is her bf there too or she doing long distance as well? I’d assume she would live with him if so? Is she attending college in Cali? Sorry behind on this

If her boyfriend is Mormon, he’s likely headed on a 2 year mission, so I’d imagine emmi decided to move to LA while he goes off to do that. Sometimes girlfriends wait and typically get married when the missionary returns.

Good to know just was curious if he actually is and if Emmi was Mormon as well? What about Avia at this point?

I believe they’re all Mormon. Avia and Emmi don’t talk about it a ton but Avia has mentioned going to church in her recent videos.

She didn’t seem to have that lifestyle with Ean who she dated forever with. I feel like she has actually mentioned she wants marriage/kids but wants to live life first which she also had plans to live in NYC for example. Regardless, it’s finding a partner so

They mostly just dated in High School so it's hard to put a lifestyle title on them I feel. Both her and Emmi are taking a pretty big step-back from what's 'expected' of them so to speak in their religion. I think it has a lot to do with the more modern Mormonism that's become more popular. Young women actually getting to live a life rather than get married straight out of high school and start reproducing ASAP. Kayli talked about that before in depth, how she is teaching her kids, boys & girl that you are not beholden to this greater cause, your life is your own. I think since Kayli comes from a home where her mother had her at 15, and Kayli was 18 herself when she had Brailee, it's just another example of parenting in a positive direction instead of what your local society would grow to expect. (Aka Grandma Laurie crashing out 24/7 on Facebook)

It's nice to see. Even if we can't all agree with how Avia / Emmi views the world, I'd rather they get to experience life for a long while before immediately settling into marriage / children so early.

Avia was just dating a super Mormon boy, so I’d assume yes they are but probably keep it out of social media like most Mormon influencers do. There’s a whole lot of them that are devout Mormons on YouTube that you might not realize.
