i have had the honor to capture her
Bat Mitzvah & family throughout the years...
so to be able to
now capture her Senior Pictures was truly SO special!
as i was editing her photos, i thought back to when i first captured
her & her family -- it's amazing to me to see how much we are born with are unique character.
yes, of course to a degree that is certainly molded & shaped by our parents/siblings/loved ones, however the
core of who we are seems to be as natural as the air we breathe.
...& as you will clearly see from her session below, Ruby,
at her core, is a radiant being, full of life & true JOY. she beams love & light, and makes you feel good just being around her.

it goes without saying that she is BEAUTIFUL, inside out.
below are some of my TOP favorites from her session, however be sure to
check out the slideshow at the end of this post for even MORE photos!
Ruby,,, you seriously
ROCK! i had, as always, such a great time with you that day.

thanks for not only being up for absolutely anything, but for having so much fun along the way.

thank you, too, for choosing me to capture this incredibly special time in your life -- i am so grateful. i hope the images below make your heart smile & feel proud of the incredible person you have become! with love & gratitude, always,

ksen
without further ado,
RUBY!
