perfect color.

Perfect color was all I could think of when I saw this beautiful senior’s dress. She pulled it out of the car and I knew that I had struck gold for the “field” session I had planned. I had brought an antique rocker my Great-Grandfather made that was covered in a yummy rusty red velvet, and then add her turquoise dress, the golden field…I just couldn’t wait to finish the other part of the session to go play in the field. But wait we did! The rest of the session went great. Perfect light, locations, etc. Then we were off to the field. THEN the clouds rolled in. Not full coverage, not little quick ones, but SLOW big ones. We kept seeing little rays of hope, but they soon diminished in a blink of an eye. I explained that the shots just wouldn’t be the same with out the sun, and we both agreed to sit and wait, and wait, and wait. And then finally we had sun, and it was well worth the wait. She looked stunning, the colors were perfect and the sun lit the field in wonderful golds and ambers. Thank you for your patience Miss K.
