are some people that come into your life and whenever they’re around, life is funnier and more joyful and just more enjoyable in general. Mallory is that type of person in our lives. I don’t know of any situation where I didn’t thoroughly enjoy being in her presence!! Mallory is so mature for her age and I think that’s one of the reasons I have always loved being around her. She reminds me of some of my college friends and so when we would go on mission trips and retreats, I would naturally end up hanging out with her. Mallory also has an awesome “artsy’ side too!!
We share a love for design, statement necklaces and Jcrew… and so of course I was so excited to shoot Mallory’s senior portraits! She didn’t disappoint. She came up with a clever location where I had never photographed before and so her portraits are unique to her! Mallory, Hadley and I spent Sunday afternoon together for Mal’s shoot and I left that day being so thankful for those two girls. They are such gifts in our lives and I’m SO excited for where they are headed!! If anyone is ready for college, it’s them!! They are going to THRIVE on a campus somewhere!!! It’s so exciting! So enjoy some of my favorites of the beautiful, talented Mallory Powers! :)
