Late summer is, hands-down, one of my favorite times of year for photos. Humid Midwestern days are starting to feel more bearable, the Minnesota State Fair buzzes to life again, and friends are fitting in last-minute trips outdoors. It's also when I get the chance to meet amazing students in our community.

Akarshna and I spent an afternoon at Lake Harriet this August, chatting photography and what she's looking forward to in her senior year and beyond. Wishing her all the best!
