SENIOR SESSION: Ally 2020

Once we pass this weekend, it will mark the "official" entrance of FALL into the midwest...

I can't say that I truly perceive September as Summer until the 23rd, but being my birthday month, I love it no matter to what "season" it belongs...

Ally was ready for any temperatures that Ohio weather was going to throw at her for her Senior Session...Since it's a celebration of allll the years in high school leading up to this year of "lasts", I think it's fun to not only showcase the "norm" and the everyday...the moments that you'll remember...but to also capture the "hopes" of the future...the person into which they've bloomed...how they perceive themselves, as young adults...about to venture into the world of  possibilities...

I think I'm still reckoning with my own emotions on the subject...

there is excitement and hopefulness for future travels, classes, friends, dorm life, job opportunities...

but, I'm also still wanting to hang onto the here and now...the last sports events, play performances, school assemblies...

Ally is enjoying the moments as they come...storing them up in her memories...while simultaneously looking to the future...discovering her place in this world...

I love her contented nature...her positive outlook...the way she sets people at ease with a sincere smile and genuine friendliness...

Ally...you are lovely, both inside and out!!!  Congrats on a fabulous year and all that is to come!
