City Girl, Country Girl

This has been the age old question for me- am I a city girl or a country girl? Currently we live downtown and I truly love it! A hot cup of coffee is just a block or two away, everything we need is close at hand, and my husband even walks to work. Heck, I could walk to work but I’m too lazy. But then sometimes I long to open up my window at night and hear the crickets and frogs and feel a fragrant breeze ruffling my curtains. I dream of having pet goats and donkeys and having a vegetable garden. I don’t think I will ever be alowed to have pet farm animals, but maybe someday I could aspire to grow my own vegetables. I know if I ever move to the country I will long for the city and vice versa. I guess I’m just a little of both! This senior session made me think of my dilemna because we started out with some fabulous urban shots and then headed out as the sun went down to get in touch with our rural roots. Other than being afraid of snakes in the grass and getting alot of bug bites, it was such a fun adventure. She was so inspiring to work with, although I must admit that I was terribly jelous of her red, red hair that actually grows out of her head that color. No dye, folks. She’s the legit thing. She reminds me of a mermaid. I haven’t posted a senior session in so long! Here are a ton of my favorites….
