 Changelog
 ---------
 
+0.17.1 (unreleased)
++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+* Add ``marshmallow_sqlalchemy.fields.Nested`` field that inherits its session from its schema. This fixes a bug where an exception was raised when using ``Nested`` within a ``ModelSchema`` (:issue:`67`). 
+  Thanks :user:`nickw444` for reporting and thanks :user:`samueljsb` for the PR.
+
+User code should be updated to use marshmallow-sqlalchemy's ``Nested`` instead of ``marshmallow.fields.Nested``.

Schema deserialisation with defined session and nested field throws an exception
Not sure if this is intended functionality, however the code below throws `ValueError: Deserialization requires a session` when trying to load data into a nested object. 

I would expect passing a session would propagate to nested fields, however this doesn't seem to be the case. Is this by design?

If i remove `followup` (the nested field) from the `only=` property, the data loads fine from the non-nested field.

``` python

class FollowUp(ModelSchema):
    reasonCode =fields.String(attribute='reason_code')
    comment = fields.String()

class Occurence(ModelSchema):
    #... other fields before ...
    followup = fields.Nested(FollowUp())
    status = fields.String()

# Inside my request handler:
obj = DBOccurence.query.get_or_404(occ_id)
res = Occurence(only=['status', 'followup']).load(
            request.json,
            instance=obj,
            session=current_app.db.session
        )
```
