Nine. What a great age to photograph! 

One evening last week, this gorgeous girl and I walked, chatted, ate candy and created beautiful portraits.  Half way into our little adventure some big clouds rolled in and it started to rain.  I started to look around for some shelter, but my lovely subject turned to me and said, "I love to be out in the rain.  I feel so alive!"  Well, that was incentive enough for me to carry out taking pictures, and so we did!  A few mintues later, the rain cleared up and we skipped our way around the park because let's face it, life is better when you skip.
