tess runion photography

Another week has come and gone. We had a rainy few days and I didn't photograph much. I did grab a couple shots of my boy. He doesn't often agree to let me take his picture. I mean...what 13 year old boy does. We were chatting and I had my camera so I took a few snaps while we talked. He is such a sensitive, caring soul. I pray he never hardens.

And don't forget to follow our blog circle! Up next is my amazing friend, Allison Gipson!

A Year of Stories is a collaborative group of storytelling photographers sharing our images and prose with each other and you. I can't say enough about how much I love this project and my talented friends in this group. I look forward to their posts every week. Be sure to follow our circle all the way around starting with Laura Mood!

Letting my images do the talking this week! 

Thanks for stopping in!

My last A Year of Stories post for summer 2016. Always bittersweet when summer comes to an end.

We spent the week getting ready for school and soaking in the last few days before the schedule kicked in. 

The weather even gave us a taste of Fall! 

And of course I took the obligatory first day of school portraits this morning as they headed out the door and a shot of the calm after they were gone. 

And now I'm sitting here missing them. And my big girl too. Wah wah wah.

Up next in our group is the talented Renee Bonuccelli! Don't forget to follow all the way around the circle for some September inspiration!

See you next week!
