The images below of Emily are from a recent late afternoon photoshoot and were taken as the sun was near the horizon. [...]
Lynsey Boothe

Chubby Bunny
I had no idea what “chubby bunny” meant until someone made a comment on the series of images below. Apparently “Chubby Bunny” is a game played by two or more people. One person at a time places a marshmallow in their mouth and tries to say “Chubby Bunny”. This is repeated until the person can [...]
