Sarrah Countdown #6


We wanted wandered into an abandoned elementary school in a defunct U.S. Air Force base that is now a ghost town. This way the gym.


On our first day at my uncle's ranch in Paradise Valley, we played in the hay shed.


Driving long hauls is a must in Montana, the fourth-largest state in the United States. Sarrah passed the time by making money.


Sarrah was trying to find a way to shoot an open window in my grandmother's barn south of Opheim, Montana.


This is my favorite photograph of Sarrah. She is the same height and build as my grandmother was at this age. It's almost like looking back through time to see my grandmother in 20s, with five (not yet seven) kids in tow. Danielle Gervasio considers this photo to be reminiscent of a Johannes Vermeer painting.
