To do so, Fregoso took to Twitter and tweeted Harbour, asking him what it will take to get him to pose with her. "@DavidKHarbour how many retweets for you take my senior photos with me."

Talking to Fresno Bee, Fregoso expressed her disbelief on getting a photo shoot with David Harbour. "Literally I still can’t believe it. I never thought that David would have ever tweeted me back. I’m still shocked for the most part. It’s crazy to think this happened because of retweets."
Even the photographer behind the photoshoot was amused by the whole story and Tommy Garcia wrote on his social media account, "I don’t always take senior portraits, but when I do, it’s because @postydamaris gets 25k+ retweets and @DavidKHarbour agrees to take them with her as long as he is allowed to hold a trombone. 😂"
