Ashely's Senior Adventures

This was a session to end the year with all it's uniqueness indeed.

To start, and this is really the only important thing, Ashley rocked her session completely. We scurried around in the leaves and looked at all the buildings that make up Pioneer Village, stopping against this or that building to pose against the cool wood or taking pictures under that gloriously orange leafed tree. A session of outside museums and Christmas decorations and aesthetic mugs and good friends; yes please. There wasn't many people, because, well, it was closing soon, so I was kind of startled to look through a window of an old doctors building to see a human silhouette in a really strange position. Guys, it's okay, it was just a mannequin, we don't have to bolt and never come back ever...

Okay, I will admit, I was a little worried that we wouldn't have enough time to get in all that we needed to get in when we first arrived at the museum. Because, yeah, we only had twenty minuets to go in, shoot, and get out. Pro tip, remember to check when your location closes, otherwise you may have to scramble. But the time restraint couldn't keep us from our fun. The session ended with us hiding behind buildings to take just a few more photos and avoid being kicked out, eventually being  escorted out by a man on a golf cart.

The twenty minute session was a new experience, but we all ended up laughing the whole time, even with the time restraint and our trusty back up golf cart man, who was honestly just doing his job; poor guy had to deal with a crazed photographer and darling subject prancing around the property.

It was an entirely good way to end this year of client work I say.

 I don't know if I will blog much in the month of December, or if I will more so than usual, but I have purposed to blog not with obligation, but only when my heart stirs. And so I will, and we will see what it is that comes from my heart stirring.

This was my last session of the year. 
It's strange for me to even say the word session, much less realize that I have had more this year than any year. I have so enjoyed getting to create with others during this season of change and growth; a year of first's it has been. And it's here, in my little circle, my little blog, that I can share and give and let people see and maybe connect in a way that is beyond what I thought was possible. Such a special place this is and I can't thank everyone enough for even enjoying something that I post, much less telling me so or finding some encouragement or inspiration from my long blog posts and crazy photos. 


So, here's to Christmas and a year of first's and to a group of awesome people.
