Graci
August 14, 2022
There is a Demonstration Forest barely ten minutes from my house. I literally never go there. I had no idea how cool it was, you guys: the trails, the views, the beauty of it. And we didn't even get very far for very long! So up front I'm letting you know, I'm a huge advocate for exploring your own area. Go do something new. I'm so grateful photography allows me to do that.
Now - THIS GIRL. Can we take a sec? She is so beautiful. SO beautiful, I'm a little stunned. I had the privilege of meeting Graci while hiking Silver Falls last January ( <-- I can neither recommend nor discourage this haha). I was super stoked when she reached out to me for her senior photos. But you should know. I'm a little impossible when I do pictures ha... I become a lot more fearless for the sake of a photo. And as a byproduct I ask you to be a lot more fearless as well - I will literally throw you anywhere. We've talked about this before haha. In weeds. Cradling a fern bush. Standing on a stump barefoot... I did make sure she was okay first, for the record. Point is, sometimes I give what may seem like very odd instructions. "I want you to cradle this fern. - Feels weird, looks great." So here are some of my favorites, the fruit of Graci's trust. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Thank you, Graci, truly, it was so lovely to be able to do this for you.
Love, Sarah
