The photographer said.

So innocent and young I was

I felt strong and a little bit of a badass in my blue dress and cowboy hat.

The sun shining behind me

Setting the mood for this photo, yet all I can think of is “ow.” These rocks and grains are hurting my knee once the photo was taken.

I was helped up, and I brushed those darn little rocks away.

I know the shoot was great, but nothing great comes without a bit of pain.
