This resilient gal Emma is such a trooper! Today the top of hurricane ridge felt like what I could only imagine what Antarctica feels like! With no wind, it is already so cold up there in the winter, then add in that strong freezing wind...it was absolutely horrible!! Looking through these images, you would have no clue it was freezing as it was! She powered through with many much-needed warm-up breaks, without a single complaint!! Her family showed up to watch these moments happen, so of course I had to get them in a few of the images! To capture the love, the friendship, and the amount of pride that gleamed from her parents...it was so worth all the frozen body parts! Many congrats to you! With your determination...I see you accomplishing whatever you pour your love, energy, and drive into!
