This year I was blessed with multiple families trusting me with their christmas photos. I held mini sessions on a couple different days and the first was to take place on Mount Scott. As I had my cousin and her family behind me following me to go up Mount Scott, for the first time in my life in the middle of the afternoon the gate was closed. Full panic you guys! I quickly let them know hey see the gate, we have to go somewhere else. So off to the Parallel Forest we went. I did however end one of the evenings on top of mount scott and it was worth all the hassle. There really isn’t a bad location in the refuge so I am forever thankful for the beauty that is everywhere out there.
