Portrait: Katie’s farmnival session

Katie goes to the farmnival!… we followed closely with our cameras of course. WTH’s a farmnival? It’s a farm and a carnival of course… and a word I totally just made up . Anyhow, Katie lives out in a town called “Boring” (kid you not)… but spend 10 minutes with her and you’ll find out [...]
