Francesca | Blacksburg High School Senior Photographer

“Compassionate, determined, and bold,” those are the three words Francesca uses to describe herself. I couldn’t have chosen better adjectives for this amazing young woman.

I have written many times before about how much I enjoy photographing seniors, particularly the seniors that I had the fortune of teaching when they were a seventh grader in my math class. That is exactly how I feel about Francesca! I really enjoyed getting to teach her many years ago. She was always an interested learner and would have great input in our classroom discussions. Now that she has grown into a very politically active young woman, I am enjoying getting to know her again!

Francesca is very active in her FFA (Future Farmers of America) chapter at Blacksburg High School. It is a family legacy for Francesca because her father and grandfather were also FFA members!

Francesca loves to study History the most of all subjects. When she isn’t studying or involved in FFA activities, Francesca enjoys spending time with her friends, listening to a “broad range of classic rock,” working with her chickens, farming, and “studying political theory/history in general.”

Led Zeppelin, Buffalo Springfield, The Rolling Stones, Rush, and The Grateful Dead are Francesca’s favorite bands. Her favorite TV programs are Freaks and Geeks, The Americans, The Office, Breaking Bad, and Better Call Saul.

Political Science and History are the subjects Francesca plans to study when she attends college next year. She is planning to start her college career at New River Community College and then hopefully transfer to Purdue University. No matter what school she ends up attending, Francesca will definitely make her mark. She is one of the good ones. I am happy our world has a young woman like Francesca in it!

Okay! Enough from me! How about more from her session?!!!
