One word comes to mind when I think of Maddie: Luminous. Every piece of her personality, every smile, and every word she speaks has a special brightness to it. She is marked by such a rare and lovely poise, and she carries herself with absolute grace and elegance. 

I left this session with my cup running over. You can't spend time with this lady without catching some of her contagious happiness... I think if you scroll down and see her smile you'll understand what I mean. 

Maddie, congratulations on starting your senior year with such positivity. You are a beacon of light to those around you, and I hope you use that light to spread love and happiness this school year. You're going to do amazing things. <3 

*do small things with great love*
