Allison

It isn't often I attempt this, let alone actually succeed. Prior to this, I think there is only once I succeeded, with Tenley, though there were other attempts where I was turned down.

Which is what sets my interaction with Allison apart from Josie earlier this year. Since with Josie I got shots of both of them together first even though, I'll admit, I really only wanted Josie. And here I also wanted only Allison.

Allison was walking on the Riverfront Heritage Trail with her boyfriend. I got a glimpse of her on Main walking toward the observation deck as they walked ahead of me. And my chance to photograph her came at the temporary goat pen set up just west of railroad suspension bridge. Just a little direction involving the bench that was right there.

So where's her boyfriend? That's what sets this apart from the previously-mentioned interactions: I didn't talk to him. Even though he was standing right next to her, I more or less just acted like he wasn't there. I spoke only to Allison and got shots of just her. I had zero intention of getting shots of them together.
