Commence.

We all experience milestones, little place-marks in our life where no matter how long ago it was, we remember.  What’s so nice about those times is the opportunity to capture that small moment in photographs, to keep it as a happy, life-changing memory.  That’s what this shoot was all about.  Molly is graduating from Eastern this month, and her parents wanted to get some photos of her as a graduate, ready to take on her dreams and begin working toward the vision of a future bright with promise.  What I loved about the session was Molly’s calm, just-plain-nice nature, her easygoing personality, and willingness to go along and trust any little idea I had.  It was such a pleasure to see the relationship with her parents, Lorraine and Bill, to view the support system she’s had throughout her childhood, and still into the future.

Molly, I wish you all the best as you pursue your career in Mathematics.  It was an honor to spend time with you and your family—  Thanks for trusting me with your memories!
