A lot of people take the effort to look for photos and put them here, so please, if you want more, do a little effort yourself.

Somebody knows when is the photographic session?

I think in June or July

Nothing has been anounced. It's taken place some years (3) in a row, but it isn't a fixed tradition or anything.
